The Chiefs will also host the Philadelphia Eagles in a Super Bowl rematch on "Monday Night Football" in Week 11, and later host the Las Vegas Raiders for a Christmas Day game on Nickelodeon and CBS at 1 p.m. ET. It’ll be the second regular-season game on Nickelodeon after last year’s Christmas game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Denver Broncos.

"Sunday Night Football" has several notable matchups, including in Week 2, when the New England Patriots are expected to welcome Tom Brady back to Foxboro as they take on the Miami Dolphins. In Week 4, Mahomes and Rodgers will face each other for the first time in their careers as the Chiefs visit the Jets, while Cowboys at San Francisco 49ers (Week 5) and Eagles at Cowboys (Week 14) also stand out.
