Uh oh, it looks like the Kansas City Chiefs might be facing a little more drama than they expected heading into their final regular season game against the Denver Broncos. A blizzard warning has shut down Kansas City International Airport, and the Chiefs are stuck in KC!1
They were supposed to touch down in Denver this afternoon, but Mother Nature had other plans. Heavy snowfall has grounded their plane, and now they’re scrambling to figure out how to get to Denver in time for tomorrow’s game.
CBS reporter Tracy Wolfson tweeted that the team is “stranded” due to the airport closure.2 And you know what that means? Travel chaos!
Fans are already giving the Chiefs a hard time for their travel planning. Some are saying they should have seen this coming and made alternate arrangements. But hey, sometimes you just can’t predict these things.
In the midst of all this, there’s also been some talk about whether Andy Reid might rest his star players, like Patrick Mahomes, with the playoffs right around the corner. But let’s be real, getting to Denver is the priority right now.
It’s going to be interesting to see how this all unfolds. Will the Chiefs make it to Denver in time? Will they have to reschedule the game? Will we see some backups getting more playing time than expected? Stay tuned, folks! This is shaping up to be a wild weekend in the NFL.
