Chiefs 2022 Schedule Released: Kansas City's 17 Opponents, Game Dates

Here’s who the team will face in 2022 after finishing among the league's best in 2021.

The Chiefs enter the 2022 season after falling one game shy of making their third consecutive Super Bowl appearance to end the 2021 season. Kansas City finished 12–5 last season.

However, there have been some significant changes to the franchise since losing to the Bengals in the AFC conference championship game on Jan. 30. Kansas City lost wide receiver Tyreek Hill in a trade to the Dolphins and Charvarius Ward in free agency, but brought in former Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, former Packers receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, safety Justin Reid and running back Ronald Jones, among others. The team also used the franchise tag to keep left tackle Orlando Brown.

Kansas City also added some new faces to the team in this year’s draft including two first-round picks in Washington’s Trent McDuffie and Purdue’s George Karlaftis. The AFC West division will be a tough one this season due to all of the offseason moves between the Raiders, Broncos and the Chargers.

Beyond the Chiefs division opponents, here's who Kansas City will face next season.
