A week ago today, the Kansas City Chiefs' preseason opener against the Los Angeles Rams didn't go the way they'd originally planned. After a week to hit the reset button and wrap up training camp, head coach Andy Reid's crew is now in hostile territory for preseason outing No. 2 against the Tampa Bay Buccaners.

Fresh off a 24-16 triumph over the New York Jets, Todd Bowles' Bucs squad is looking to keep the good times rolling. Can Kansas City pull off an upset with some of its key players either limited or not playing at all?

Here's everything you need to know and how you can follow along with the Chiefs as they square off against the Buccaneers later today.
