The Denver Broncos are preparing for the possibility of poor field conditions against the Kansas City Chiefs this week.
“I think the weather forecast Sunday [is] 59 degrees, 10 mile an hour winds,” Broncos coach Sean Payton said Wednesday. “I do think the field will be something we have to pay attention to. It rained last night. They also have a college game Saturday on this grass surface. The weather for Saturday is heavy rain forecast so we’ll have to make sure we’re prepared for that.”
The Kansas Jayhawks will host the Iowa State Cyclones at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Less than 24 hours later, the Chiefs will host the Broncos on the same field, one day after a storm.
The forecast is currently calling for rain on Saturday, but AccuWeather.com predicts a “sunny and pleasant” day on Sunday. KC’s weather and field conditions will be worth monitoring this week.
