The Kansas City Chiefs remain in sole possession of first place in the AFC playoff standings after their victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.
The defending Super Bowl champions will look to maintain their conference-best record against the Houston Texans today.
The Texans have been solid this year, and quarterback C.J. Stroud has continued to build on his impressive 2023 campaign.
Chiefs signal-caller Patrick Mahomes suffered an injury scare last week that left his status up in the air, but head coach Andy Reid has confirmed he will play in today’s game.
Veteran wide receiver Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown is also expected to play today after being on injured reserve all season, but don’t bank on a big game from the speedy pass-catcher in his regular-season Chiefs debut.
Here’s how to watch the Chiefs’ Week 16 matchup with the Texans, including time, TV schedule, and streaming information:

Chiefs vs Texans predictions, picks
Chiefs 24, Browns 21: Patrick Mahomes’ ankle continues to be a concern for the Chiefs and will undoubtedly be a factor in today’s game. The reigning Super Bowl MVP is known for his ability to scramble and move around the pocket, but a hurt ankle may prove to limit his mobility. Even after comments by Texans’ defensive tackle Tim Settle earlier this week, Houston’s defensive front doesn’t present much of a threat to Kansas City and shouldn’t keep the Chiefs from securing a win.
