The Kansas City Chiefs had the chance to eliminate the rival Denver Broncos from playoff contention by beating them in Sunday’s Week 18 game, but they chose to sit all of their starters since they had nothing to play for.

The team finished the regular season with a 15-2 record, and they already secured the AFC West title and the No. 1 overall seed in the conference.

Unfortunately for them, they were unable to leave from Denver to head home on time.

A day after their scheduled takeoff from Kansas City International Airport was delayed due to rapid ice accumulation on the airfield, the Kansas City Chiefs’ plane was unable to return to Kansas City until at least Monday, thanks to ongoing severe weather in the area.

The Chiefs have been grounded in Denver. The airport in Kansas City was closed on Sunday night due to heavy storms.

The team is hoping they can make it back to Missouri by mid-afternoon on Monday.

The Kansas City Chiefs Will Have 23 Days Off Before Playing Another Meaningful Game

Whatever injuries that the Chiefs are dealing with, they have as many as 23 days to get it right before they play another game.

The Chiefs won’t play another game in 23 days. They have a first-round bye and will await their opponent in the divisional round.

The earliest they would play in the divisional round is Jan. 18.

Taylor Swift Is Being Accused Of Being A ‘Coward’ For Her Decision On Sunday

Taylor Swift is no longer on tour, but she still chose not to attend the Chiefs game.

Swift concluded her Eras Tour earlier this month before traveling to Kansas City. She had closed out her record-breaking Eras Tour with nine concerts in Toronto and Vancouver.

Swift has been a member of Chiefs Kingdom since she started dating Kelce in the summer of 2023.

Despite rampant speculation throughout town, Swift was not in attendance for Kelce’s homecoming as the Cleveland Browns hosted the Chiefs for their Week 15 meeting.

Many took to social media and called out the pop star for being cowardly and not wanting to face the Dawg Pond.

“Taylor Swift said Thxs but no Thxs to attending a game in Cleveland,” one fan said while posting a GIF of her singing.
