The Chiefs–Broncos matchup on Christmas may not carry the same weight it did when the schedule was first released. Kansas City has been eliminated from playoff contention and will be without Patrick Mahomes, dampening the national intrigue.
Still, the game remains significant for Denver, which is aiming to secure the AFC’s top seed. With Chris Oladokun expected to start at quarterback for the Chiefs, and eager to “show the world what I got,” there will be plenty of curiosity surrounding the contest. So, here’s a look at the broadcast details for the game.
