Chiefs re-sod field in preparation for AFC championship hosting duties

The most talked about player for the AFC Championship game this weekend is the weather. First expected to be one of the coldest ones in the books, it’s now going to be a little warmer — but still quite cold.

Kansas City is dutifully preparing to host its first ever AFC title game and that includes an unexpected re-sod to Arrowhead Stadium after last week’s snowy Saturday. The Kansas City Chiefs will host the New England Patriots at 5:40 p.m. Central time.

Arrowhead has new sod for title game

Travis Hogan, head groundskeeper for the Chiefs at Arrowhead, shared an update late Thursday.
