What happened: Geno Smith evaluated the Kansas City Chiefs defense ahead of their upcoming matchup, noting the unit features talent across every tier. Smith stated that Kansas City presents challenges throughout its lineup as preparations continue for the contest.

Why it matters: Kansas City enters the matchup aiming to rebound after dropping two consecutive games to fall to 5-2 on the season, most recently losing 28-24 to the Denver Broncos. Maintaining offensive efficiency will be critical against a Chiefs group seeking to regain defensive momentum.

By the numbers: Smith has completed 165 of 239 passes for 1913 yards with 12 touchdowns and 3 interceptions in 2026 through 8 games.

What to watch: Kansas City looks to snap its two-game losing streak and tighten coverage against an efficient passing attack.
