The Game
To start the three games that will round out 2025’s regular season, the (6-8) Kansas City Chiefs hit the road to play the (2-12) Tennessee Titans in Week 16. Kickoff will happen on Sunday at 12 p.m. Arrowhead Time from Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.
With starting quarterback Patrick Mahomes on the Reserve/Injured list, backup Gardner Minshew will be under center for the Chiefs. He finished last week’s 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers with a deflating interception, but will make his
first start since Week 12 of last season with the Las Vegas Raiders.
Across the field, the Titans are finishing out a season that featured the dismissal of head coach Brian Callahan midway through his second season. There is still light in Tennessee’s future with quarterback Cam Ward, the number-one overall pick in last spring’s NFL Draft.
Ward and Minshew will let it loose on a relatively nice late-December day.
