The Kansas City Chiefs' 2025 preseason is in the books as attention turns to the finalized roster and how the franchise begins the season. It is a tough early slate with the Chargers and Eagles starting off the season in what is a consistently rough schedule. Still, the Kansas City preseason gave a glimpse of a quarterback and offense that is going to be up for the challenge.
As long as health remains, the Chiefs have little reason to fear anyone else in the AFC. Years of consistent domination have left fans with understandably lofty expectations, even with the tough schedule in mind.
With the regular season just over a week away, the Chiefs have made a noteworthy practice change, altering their jersey sponsors. It is a noteworthy move for the league's prestigious franchise. There simply isn't a better current team to represent your brand than the dynastic Chiefs.

Chiefs Announce New Practice Sponsor Ahead of 2025 Season
According to Sam McDowell, the Chiefs have a new practice sponsor in the 2025 season, with Burns and McDonnell taking over the role. It is a noteworthy announcement in some ways, but not one that is terribly going to excite a fan base that has an incredibly high level of expectations for the years ahead.
For the Chiefs, the season starts in many ways in the playoffs. Yes, the regular season record is great and easy to enjoy. However, the franchise has set the baseline of making the AFC Championship each and every year. As long as Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid remain at the helm, this isn't going to change. With this in mind, there is an understandable level of apathy when it comes to preseason announcements and moves.
Kansas City is set to open the 2025 season on the road next Friday night against the Los Angeles Chargers. It is one the franchise cannot afford to overlook with Jim Harbaugh unquestionably having his team ready and motivated to face the defending AFC West champs. Something an annoying division rival is going to be focused on attempting to set a tone for their season.
