The Super Bowl runner-up Chiefs head into the 2025 season with revenge on their minds. After being trounced by the Eagles and losing out on a three-peat, Kansas City now must regain its footing in the league — starting with the preseason.
They'll first face the Cardinals, a team that has quickly gained some steam behind coach Jonathan Gannon. Arizona went 8-9 last year despite minimal expectations. Now they have some top-tier defensive rookies to try and bolster their NFC West chances.
We won't see many stars in this matchup, but the preseason offers a chance to check out players who could make roster spots or have an unseen impact in a critical season.
