The Kansas City Chiefs have played on Christmas Day in each of the last two years, as the NFL continues to draw big ratings from its holiday schedule.
Much like how the NFL has two teams designated to play on Thanksgiving––the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys––the Chiefs were hopeful they could become a permanent fixture on Dec. 25 each year. The team submitted a request to the NFL in order to make that the Chiefs part of the league's Christmas Day tradition, but it doesn't seem as if it's going to come to fruition.
