The Jaguars and Chiefs will find themselves in something of a winter wonderland for their AFC divisional clash.
Temperatures are expected to be near freezing, while precipitation — in the form of both freezing rain and snow — appears likely, especially toward the end of the game.
Patrick Mahomes and company are used to arctic temps. Trevor Lawrence’s squad? Not so much. Still, the Jags made a good account of themselves the last time they went up to Arrowhead Stadium; granted, they were greeted with clear skies in their 27-17 loss to KC in Week 10.
Nevertheless, Mother Nature will certainly have a part to play in all the action on Saturday afternoon, part of a cold front slated to sweep across the Midwest.
