In preparation for Saturday’s AFC Super Wild Card game against the Miami Dolphins at GEHA Field in Arrowhead Stadium, the Kansas City Chiefs have enlisted former player Tamba Hali as the Drum Honoree to energize Chiefs Kingdom. Tim Grunhard, a former offensive lineman, will take on the role of the Tony DiPardo Spirit Leader for pregame festivities. Country musician Kameron Marlowe is set to perform the national anthem before the 7:10 p.m. kickoff. To combat the anticipated 7-degree temperatures, the team has also provided tips for fans on staying warm during the game. The broadcast will be available on KSHB 41 for the Kansas City market and on the Peacock streaming service for viewers outside the area, as NFL regulations prevent streaming on kshb.com and the KSHB 41 app.
