The Kansas City Chiefs officially know what lies ahead for their 2025 campaign after the NFL released its full regular season schedule on Wednesday, May 14. As the defending AFC champions, the Chiefs will face high expectations throughout the season and may even face headwinds in their preseason exhibition matchups this summer.

Along with the opening international game, the Chiefs will take on the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day (Week 13) and will also host a Christmas Day game against the Denver Broncos on December 25. The NFL announced the full schedules for all 32 teams on Wednesday. Here is the Chiefs’ outlook for 2025.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ 2025 schedule is out, and nearly half their games are set to be standalone affairs as the NFL continues to spotlight one of its most popular teams. KC not only plays on Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2025, but will also have eight standalone games and seven combined prime-time contests.
