The Kansas City Chiefs are the darlings of the NFL schedule once again, and the team the league is banking on to turn in huge ratings. With the NFL schedule being unveiled this week, the Chiefs will be featured in seven prime-time games -- five in the first eight weeks of the season.

The Chiefs will play at the New York Giants in Week 3 on Sunday Night Football, according to Fox Sports NFL reporter Jordan Schultz. It will be the Giants’ home opener and the Chiefs’ first game at the Giants since 2017.

The league didn't have to pick the Chiefs, but it did. That came despite avoiding a divisional game in every other international matchup this season and a long history of doing so.
