Are the Chiefs playing today in Week 7?

Are the Kansas City Chiefs playing today? Here’s a look at the schedule and the games to come. 

Will the Kansas City Chiefs be on the field today in Week 7 of the NFL football schedule?

After their 26-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints on October 7, the undefeated Chiefs got some much-needed time off in Week 6 and are set to return to the field on Sunday, October 20 for a Super Bowl LVIII rematch against the San Fransisco 49ers.

This Week 7 matchup is set to take place at Levi’s Stadium in San Fransisco, and while the 49ers will have the home advantage they have been plagued with a significant number of key injuries that will surely impact their strategy against the Chiefs.

Will San Francisco have enough gas to get past the reigning Super Bowl champions, or will this game be a repeat of the last meeting between these two powerhouse teams in February?

Chiefs 2024 schedule

  • Week 7: at San Francisco 49ers
  • Week 8: at Las Vegas Raiders
  • Week 9: vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
  • Week 10: vs. Denver Broncos
  • Week 11: at Buffalo Bills

How to watch, stream, and listen to Saints vs. 49ers preseason game

How to watch, stream, and listen to Sunday night’s New Orleans Saints vs. San Francisco 49ers preseason game:

We’re already onto the second week of NFL preseason games with the New Orleans Saints and San Francisco 49ers kicking off on Sunday night. This will be a nationally-broadcast game carried on FOX affiliates around the country; Adam Amin and Mark Sanchez are on the call.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • What: New Orleans Saints at San Francisco 49ers
  • Where: Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, Calif.
  • When: Sunday, Aug. 18, 7 p.m. CT (5 p.m. California time)

You can stream the game for free on Fubo TV (try it here), as well as a paid streaming option on NFL+. If you’re planning to listen in over the radio, tune in to WWL 870 AM or 105.3 FM with Mike Hoss and Deuce McAllister. Fans in the Bay Area should check into KGO 810 AM for the local broadcast.

This should be an interesting matchup. The Saints were set to host the 49ers for two days of joint practices at their training camp in Irvine, but San Francisco bowed out after sustaining too many injuries over the summer. New Orleans is also dealing with a host of their own injuries but they plan on playing their starters to make up for lost reps against the 49ers. How many snaps Derek Carr and the starting offense needs remains to be seen, but their performance last week is enough proof to suggest they need the practice before the regular season begins in September.

Here’s where 49ers ranked in attendance for 2023

It’s going to be hard for the #49ers to get much higher on the NFL’s overall attendance ranking:

The 49ers entered the 2024 season as a true Super Bowl contender. Their biggest question mark, Brock Purdy’s surgically repaired elbow, didn’t even need the entire preseason to get an answer. San Francisco was one of the NFL’s best teams on paper going into the season and they continued to be that throughout the season.

Despite the offseason hype and continued strong play, the 49ers couldn’t crack the top of the NFL’s attendance leaderboard for the 2023 season.

One problem here for San Francisco is that Levi’s Stadium is on the smaller side. Just 13 stadiums have a lower capacity than Levi’s.

Because of that, the 49ers’ place in the attendance ranking suffered in 2023. Here’s the full rank:

Levi’s Stadium, site of Broncos’ last championship, to host Super Bowl in 2026

Ten years after hosting the Broncos in Super Bowl 50 in 2016, Levi’s Stadium is set to host Super Bowl in 2026.

Ten years after hosting the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50, the Bay Area will host Super Bowl LX in 2026.

NFL owners have approved Levi’s Stadium as the hosting site for the Super Bowl to be played following the 2025 season.

Home of the San Francisco 49ers, Levi’s Stadium held 71,088 fans to watch the Broncos defeat the Panthers 24-10 in Super Bowl 50 in 2016.

Outside linebacker Von Miller was named Super Bowl MVP after totaling 2.5 sacks and two forced fumbles in the win. That championship title marked the the Super Bowl win in franchise history. It also marked the final game of quarterback Peyton Manning’s accomplished career.

Lady Gaga sang the national anthem before Super Bowl 50 and Coldplay performed at halftime with appearances from Beyoncé, Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson.

This season’s Super Bowl will be played at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. After that, the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans will host in 2025. San Francisco is now on deck for 2026.

NFL announces Super Bowl LX will be played at Levi’s Stadium in 2026

[connatix div_id=”3f8b015acdd24c648befc5d5dac47469″ player_id=”afe1e038-d3c2-49c0-922d-6511a229f69c” cid=”7cbcea0d-4ce2-4c75-9a8d-fbe02a192c24″]

The NFL owners are currently at the Spring League Meetings and on Monday they approved the San Francisco 49ers’ Levi’s Stadium as the host site of Super Bowl LX in 2026.

Located in Santa Clara, California, Levi’s Stadium will host its second Super Bowl since opening in 2014.

“The Bay Area was an incredible host for Super Bowl 50, and we are thrilled to bring the Super Bowl back,” said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement on Monday. “We look forward to working with the 49ers and the Bay Area Host Committee to create an impactful Super Bowl LX in 2026 that showcases all the great things the region has to offer.”

In a Super Bowl 50 matchup, Peyton Manning and the Broncos defeated Cam Newton’s Carolina Panthers, 34-10.

[anyclip pubname=”2103″ widgetname=”0016M00002U0B1kQAF_M8036″]

The NFL owners on Monday voted to officially approve Levi’s Stadium as the site of Super Bowl LX.

Kickoff for that game is slated for February 8, 2026 to cap the 2025 season.

This will be the second Super Bowl hosted in the 49ers’ home stadium. The first was Super Bowl 50 when the Broncos thumped the Panthers 24-10.

Sports Business Journal reported in the days leading up to the meeting that Levi’s Stadium was due to be the site of Super Bowl 60, but the owners needed to officially vote on it.

“The Bay Area was an incredible host for Super Bowl 50, and we are thrilled to bring the Super Bowl back,” NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement released by the 49ers. “We look forward to working with the 49ers and the Bay Area Host Committee to create an impactful Super Bowl LX in 2026 that showcases all the great things the region has to offer.”

49ers president Al Guido also released a statement following the announcement:

“We are honored to host the Super Bowl at Levi’s Stadium once again, and to be stewards of one of the biggest sporting events in the world. Since hosting Super Bowl 50 in 2016, Levi’s Stadium has cemented its reputation as a world-class venue. I’m confident Super Bowl LX will be a terrific event that benefits the entire community.”

This season’s Super Bowl will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Next season’s will be at the Superdome in New Orleans.

2026 is shaping up to be a huge year for Levi’s Stadium. It’ll host the Super Bowl in February, and then act as a host site for the 2026 Men’s World Cup in the Summer.

Where will the next three Super Bowls be played? We know know the locations through 2026.

We now know where the next three Super Bowls will be held.

USA Today reported on Friday that the San Francisco 49ers have won rights to host Super Bowl 60 in 2026, sending the big game out to Santa Clara’s Levi’s Stadium.

In 2025, the big game will head down to the Big Easy and host NFL fans at the New Orleans Saints’ Caesars Superdome. Patrons can stroll down Bourbon Street, listen to some jazz music and eat some good Cajun food ahead of Super Bowl 59.

Then, in 2026, the Super Bowl will reportedly return to Santa Clara for the first time since 2016.

Bobby Wagner responds to streaker’s police report

Wagner is not amused by the streaker’s action, and showed no remorse for his actions.

The Los Angeles Rams have seen their share of drama so far in 2022, but none as bizarre as what has occurred between starting linebacker Bobby Wagner and a streaker who interrupted their Monday night matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. After running onto the field with a device that emitted copious amounts of pink smoke, the streaker was summarily tackled by Wagner and a teammate before being escorted into the custody of law enforcement per standard procedure.

Today, news broke that the hooligan had filed a police report against Wagner, alleging that he was the victim of a “blatant assault” by the pair of Rams, which may open the door to legal recourse depending on the results of the Santa Clara Police Department’s findings.

Wagner responded to the report’s filing on Wednesday, saying that he had been apprised of the situation.

“I’m aware of it,” Wagner said. “[But] I’m more concerned about the security guard who got hurt trying to chase him.”

His total disregard for the safety of the streaker is on-brand for a player who put a swift end to stadium shenanigans in primetime. Especially on the road, players must always be aware of their surroundings and the behavior of fans who may be quick to make their mark on the game unnecessarily.

In the event that Wagner faces any legal trouble over the incident, the Rams organization would likely provide any council necessary to make sure any charges brought against him would be quickly dismissed. After a loss on the road, potential court proceedings are the last thing that the team wants its star players to worry about, especially as they head into the meat of their grueling 17-game schedule.

Fan leveled by Bobby Wagner at Levi’s Stadium is seeking legal recourse

The streaker who was leveled by Wagner on Monday night filed a police report against the #Rams linebacker

One of the more bizarre aspects of the Los Angeles Rams’ Week 4 loss was an incident that occurred between a streaker and starting linebacker Bobby Wagner. Just before halftime, the fan made his way onto the field, and was subsequently subdued by Wagner with a ferocious hit that swiftly ended his 15 seconds of fame.

Armed with a pink flare-like device, the fan was arrested, and few thought much of the situation until Wednesday afternoon when the streaker filed a police report with the Santa Clara Police Department.

Whether his report will lead to any formal investigation is unclear at this juncture, though it would seem he will still be held liable for his disruption of Monday night’s game regardless of the outcome. He and his representatives are claiming that a “blatant assault” by Wagner and another Rams player took place, but the veracity of their statement in the eyes of the law is to be determined.

While Los Angeles would have much rather come out victorious in the matchup and spared the streaker, the legacy of this incident is sure to continue causing a stir in the media in the weeks to come. If any charges are formally filed against Wagner and his teammate, the franchise will likely get their legal team on the case to mitigate any recourse the unruly fan might have.
