The Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos will play on Sunday Night Football.

The prime-time game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks will be moved to 4:25 p.m. The time is later.

The change came after the team suffered their second straight loss, falling to 3-7 on the season and likely out of playoff contention. The 49ers are in third place in the West, but have won two straight games.

The Washington Football Team will be the opponent for the fourth prime-time game of the season by the Seattle Seahawks.
Kansas City has regained its form after some struggles earlier in the season. The runners-up of last year's Super Bowl started the year 3-4 but have won four straight games to move into first place.

Patrick Mahomes created some question marks with his play earlier in the year, but he currently leads the NFL with 3,200 passing yards and has 25 passing touchdown through 11 games.

The bye in Week 12 will allow the Chiefs to keep their winning ways going.

The Denver Broncos are hoping to get back to.500 when they face the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday.

It will be the second prime-time game for the Broncos in 2021.
