It no longer takes 80 days to circumvent the globe, but as of Tuesday, it’s 80 days until Chiefs football returns.

The Chiefs released their preseason schedule, and the first game will be Aug. 9 against the Cardinals at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The Chiefs will play another NFC West opponent on the road six days later when they travel to Seattle to face the Seahawks at Lumen Field.

A week after that, the Chiefs will play their only home game on the preseason schedule. This is against the Chicago Bears at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

Here is the three-game slate of preseason games and how to watch and listen to each one. At a later date, the NFL will announce which preseason games will be televised to a national audience, so there’s a chance there will be other opportunities to watch.

Aug. 9: at Arizona Cardinals, 7 p.m. (KSHB, Ch. 41 and 96.5 The Fan)

Aug. 15: at Seattle Seahawks, 9 p.m. (KSHB, Ch. 41 and 96.5 The Fan)

Aug. 22: Chicago Bears, 7:20 p.m. (KSHB, Ch. 41 and 96.5 The Fan)

The Chiefs open the regular season against the Chargers on Sept. 5 in São Paulo, Brazil.
