Don't miss the action from the Indianapolis Colts' Week 2 Sunday Night Football matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.
The Indianapolis Colts (0-1) hit the road this week for a primetime visit to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the Kansas City Chiefs (1-0) on Sunday Night Football.
The Colts will look to get back on track after a lopsided Week 1 loss in which no phase of the game — offense, defense, or special teams — left a positive impression.
Quarterback Daniel Jones will make his second start since returning from Achilles surgery, as will top wide receiver Alec Pierce (heel), both knocking off rust from extended time away from the field.
The Colts' defense made a significant change this week, moving on-field play-calling duties from free safety Cam Bynum to MIKE linebacker Akeem Davis-Gaither. The Colts hope this change reduces communication and alignment issues.
Here's how you can catch all the action, whether you're streaming, watching on TV, or listening over the airwaves.

The Colts' offense never got into a rhythm last week against the Baltimore Ravens, as they were consistently backed up into their own territory. Five of their drives began inside their own 20, with a sixth beginning right at the 20. They also turned the ball over twice in the first half, gifting the Ravens 14 bonus points.
Jones faced one of the league's highest pressure rates. Baltimore deployed the fourth-highest blitz rate of the week (43.4%), and on 10 dropbacks in which he was blitzed, Jones completed just 2-of-7 passes for 19 yards and was also sacked twice, according to NFL Pro. He wasn't helped much by his non-offensive-line pass protectors, especially running back Seth McGowan, who allowed a sack and a QB hit on his two pass-pro reps.
The Colts ran the ball more steadily, with four offensive players earning above-average grades in run blocking, according to Pro Football Focus. The Colts' offense accumulated 102 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries. However, they trailed for all but the first seven minutes, which didn't help them establish a rhythm on the ground.
Anything would be an improvement for the Colts' defense, which allowed 506 yards, the most they've surrendered since Week 8 of 2023. Baltimore's 41 points are the most the Colts have given up in a season opener at home since 1954.
Sunday was also the first time since the Colts moved to Indianapolis in 1984 that a road team has committed 10-plus penalties against them and still won by at least three scores.
The Colts are 14-10 all-time against the Chiefs. The Chiefs won the last matchup in Week 12 of last season, 23-20 in overtime. Before that, the two teams split the last four meetings, dating back to 2016.
