The 2026 NFL season is about to be in full swing, but first teams will warm up with three weeks of preseason games. Get ready for Chiefs vs. Rams on Saturday.
The Chiefs will get to host their 2026-27 debut at Arrowhead, but without several key players and seasoned veterans. Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes will not see the field Saturday, or possibly at all during the preseason, as he continues to rehab a severe knee injury from December. Travis Kelce is back for his 14th season, though it's unclear how much he'll participate in the coming weeks.
The Rams will be in a similar QB situation, with leading man Matthew Stafford not likely to be in play. With roster continuity and the magnitude of Los Angeles' new additions Trent McDuffie, Jaylen Watson and Joe Cardona, there won't be many reps for rookies. But coach Sean McVay has confirmed Ty Simpson "definitely will" play in the opener Saturday.
