For the first time since Week 3 of the NFL season, the Chiefs won’t be playing a game in front of a nationally televised audience.

Over the last three weeks, the entire country had an opportunity to see the Chiefs on NBC, ESPN or CBS. But this Sunday’s Chiefs-49ers game is on Fox, and “only” a vast majority of the nation will see Kansas City play. That includes everyone east of the Mississippi River.

It’s the first time this season the Chiefs will be on Fox’s “America’s Game of the Week” with the network’s new No. 1 broadcast crew. Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen will be on the call with Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi working as reporters.

Here is the TV coverage map from 506Sports.com.
