It’s a Thursday in autumn, so you know what that means: it’s time for more Thursday Night Football on Prime Video.
Week 6 of the NFL season kicks off tonight, October 12, when Thursday Night Football heads to Kansas City, MO for some Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos action.
The Chiefs enter tonight’s game on a four game win streak; their only loss of the season so far came in Week 1. The 1-4 Broncos are hoping for another win tonight — their sole win of the season came in Week 4 against the Chicago Bears, but they notched another loss on Sunday against the New York Jets.
Want to tune in? Wondering if Taylor Swift will be in attendance? Will Travis Kelce play? We’ve got all the details below to help you tune in, from where to stream to when the game starts.

Will Taylor Swift be at tonight’s Chiefs game?
According to a report from TMZ, a Taylor Swift sighting at tonight’s game is not out of the question. It would be Swift’s third Chiefs game in four weeks, and comes even as her rumored beau, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, is questionable to play due to a Week 5 ankle injury.
Swift’s first appearance at Arrowhead came in Week 3, when the Chiefs handily defeated the Bears 41-10. She also attended a Chiefs away game at MetLife Stadium during Week 4 with friends including Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, and Sophie Turner — the end result of that game was also a (much closer) win for the Chiefs.
What to expect from tonight’s game:
The last time the Broncos won a game against the Chiefs, Peyton Manning was still playing for them. That was eight years ago, during Week 2 of the 2015 season. The teams have met 15 times since, and the Chiefs won all of them.
According to the NFL’s game preview, the average margin of victory over those 15 games has been 11 points, but the three most recent meetings ended as one-score games. Still, the Chiefs will be going for 16 straight, while the Broncos are looking for their second win of the season.
As we noted above, Chiefs TE Travis Kelce is questionable for tonight’s game due to a non-contact ankle injury suffered during last week’s game. Kelce returned to that game, catching a touchdown and a few more receptions, but as of now, his status for tonight’s tilt is officially questionable.
