The official 2026 Kansas City Chiefs schedule is expected to be released by the NFL on Wednesday, May 13, 2026. While the exact dates and kickoff times will be announced in May, the Chiefs’ opponents are already set. Kansas City will play 17 games, including 8 home games at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium and 9 road games. High-profile matchups include home games against the San Francisco 49ers and New York Jets, and a road trip to face the Buffalo Bills.
2026 Kansas City Chiefs Schedule
The 2026 Kansas City Chiefs schedule starts as early as September 3rd, 2026. The Chiefs have nine home games and eight away games this season. They can expect one bye week again, and we’ll have to wait and see how many Monday Night and Thursday Night football games that they have this season. At some point, the league will shift to 18 game seasons. When we do, expect there to be a second bye week added. It’s not likely to happen for the 2026-27 NFL regular season though.
