NFL announces opening game of 2024 season… with Travis Kelce and the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs kicking off in mouthwatering Thursday Night Football clash
The Kansas City Chiefs will open the 2024 NFL season with a home game against the Baltimore Ravens, the NFL has announced.
The Super Bowl champions will kick off the new campaign at Arrowhead on September 5 in a mouthwatering Thursday Night Football matchup against their AFC rivals.
The game will air on NBC and Peacock, and will see Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and Co come up against Lamar Jackson.
It’s a rematch of the AFC Championship game from the 2024 season that saw Kansas City beat Baltimore to reach Super Bowl LVIII.
That was a tight contest – with the Chiefs only just managing to beat the Ravens by a 17-10 scoreline.
That game saw the Chiefs score two touchdowns – one through the air to Kelce and one on the ground via Isiah Pacheco.
Kelce caught eleven passes for 116 yards and a touchdown in that contest and was joined afterwards on the field in the celebrations by his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
