The Kansas City Chiefs are welcoming the Denver Broncos for the season opener, a "Monday Night Football" battle between AFC West contenders. Head coach Andy Reid is looking to bring his team back to the playoffs after a 6-11 record last year, and quarterback Patrick Mahomes will be making his triumphant return from knee surgery last December.
Broncos head coach Sean Payton's team is the reigning AFC West champion, finishing last season 14-3 and losing in the AFC Championship. Quarterback Bo Nix is recovered from fracturing his ankle in the Divisional round win, looking to lead the Broncos into Arrowhead Stadium and pull an upset. According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Chiefs are 2.5-point favorites.
