The Kansas City Chiefs will certainly have their fair share of national exposure in prime time.  With the release of the upcoming 2016 schedule, the Chiefs get three prime time events including a Christmas night matchup at home against Denver in week 16.  The Chiefs will also travel to L.A. in August to play the Rams.

The Chiefs officially released their 2016 schedule on Thursday, and there’s certainly no shortage of spotlight games. They’ll visit Pittsburgh for Sunday Night Football in Week 4, host the Raiders on Thursday Night Football in Week 14 and host the Broncos on Christmas night in Week 16.
