How to watch the 2024 NFL season opener Baltimore Ravens vs. Kansas City Chiefs tonight

Posted on by Dsen .N

The NFL season begins tonight with the Super Bowl champions, Kansas City Chiefs, taking on the recent Super Bowl losers, Baltimore Ravens. The Chiefs are looking to start their three-game winning streak with a solid win over the Ravens, but will be without a running back after Clyde Edwards-Helaire was placed on the bench. Meanwhile, the Ravens will be looking to prove themselves after a 17-10 loss to Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and the rest of the Chiefs in February. The NFL’s opening game is scheduled for tonight, September 5, starting at 8:20 PM ET on NBC (and Telemundo) and streaming live on Peacock.
