The reigning Super Bowl Champions Kansas City Chiefs began defense of their title in the opening game of the 2020 NFL season.

Kansas City tied the game in the second quarter then continued to dominate Houston in their home opener. Mahomes threw for 211 yards and 3 touchdowns finding Travis Kelse and Sammy Watkins for second-quarter scores. The Chiefs 32nd pick of the draft Clyde Edwards-Helaire had 25 carries for 138 yards and a touchdown making him another weapon for the Super Bowl Champs.
