It’s the Kansas City Chiefs vs New York Jets this Sunday, October 1 on Sunday Night Football. Live coverage begins at 7:00 PM ET on NBC and Peacock with Football Night in America, with coverage also be available on Universo.
Kansas City Chiefs:
Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are coming off a blowout 41-10 victory over the Chicago Bears at home last Sunday. Mahomes rolled his ankle late in the second quarter but stayed in the game completing 24-of-33 for 272 yards and 3 touchdowns in the win, becoming the fast player to reach 25,000 career passing yards.
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce had 7 receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown as a very special guest watched from a luxury suite at Arrowhead Stadium. Taylor Swift, who is rumored to be involved in a budding romance with Chiefs tight end, watched the game seated next to his mom Donna Kelce.
The Chiefs All-Pro tight end missed Kansas City’s season opening loss against the Detroit Lions but has delivered over the last 2 weeks scoring a touchdown in each game.
New York Jets:
The New York Jets expected to enter into a new era after trading for Aaron Rodgers —one that would hopefully end the team’s 12 year playoff drought (the longest active drought in the NFL). But all the excitement came to a screeching halt just 4 offensive snaps in as Rodgers tore his Achilles in New York’s opening match up against the Buffalo Bills—a game that the Gang Green managed to win in overtime.
Zach Wilson, the second overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, is back in the starting QB spot but has struggled in New York’s back-to-back losses. In last week’s 15-10 defeat versus the Patriots, Wilson was sacked three times—including an end zone sack for a safety in the 4th quarter—completing only 18-of-26 for 157 yards.
Regardless, Jets coach Robert Saleh continues to stand behind the third-year quarterback.
“As long as he continues to show the way his preparation, the way he’s been practicing, and even in these games, he’s not the reason why we lost yesterday. It’s always a team effort.” Saleh told reporters. “As long as he continues to show improvement — and I know it’s not, from a box score standpoint, it’s not showing — he’s going to be our quarterback.”
