Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark, about to start her second season in the WNBA, has made it clear that her favorite NFL team is the Kansas City Chiefs.
Growing up in Des Moines, Iowa, Kansas City was the closest NFL city to Clark. Her father, Brent, played a big role in shaping her fandom, often taking her to Chiefs games as a kid. This past season, she even attended a game with Taylor Swift, the girlfriend of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
On Wednesday night, the Chiefs officially announced their schedule for the upcoming 2025 NFL season. It is as follows:
- Week 1: Los Angeles Chargers (Away – Brazil)
- Week 2: Philadelphia Eagles (Home)
- Week 3: New York Giants (Away)
- Week 4: Baltimore Ravens (Home)
- Week 5: Jacksonville Jaguars (Away)
- Week 6: Detroit Lions (Home)
- Week 7: Las Vegas Raiders (Home)
- Week 8: Washington Commanders (Home)=
- Week 9: Buffalo Bills (Away)
- Week 10: BYE
- Week 11: Denver Broncos (Away)
- Week 12: Indianapolis Colts (Home)
- Week 13: Dallas Cowboys (Away)
- Week 14: Houston Texans (Home)
- Week 15: Los Angeles Chargers (Home)
- Week 16: Tennessee Titans (Away)
- Week 17: Denver Broncos (Home)
- Week 18: Las Vegas Raiders (Away)
In their official schedule reveal on social media, Kansas City put a twist on the popular game show “Cash Cab” with a spoof called “Chiefs Cab.” When it came time to unveil the Week 12 opponent (Colts), the host threw out a trivia hint related to Clark.
“This team plays in the same city as WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark,” the host said.
One of the fans unconfidently answered “Rams” before the Week 12 opponent was revealed to be Indianapolis.
