Chiefs

Complete Chiefs and NFL playoff schedule with TV information, kickoff times

The Chiefs won’t know their playoff opponent for another week, but we do know this much: It’ll be one of three teams.

As the No. 2 seed, the Chiefs can’t face the sixth-seeded team in the AFC playoff field, which is the Tennessee Titans.

That means the Chiefs will face either the third-seeded New England Patriots, fourth-seeded Houston Texans or fifth-seeded Buffalo Bills in a divisional round playoff game at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, Jan. 12.

Here is the NFL playoff schedule (all times Central):
