For the second year, the NFL has scheduled a game on Black Friday, so football fans can enjoy a holiday weekend packed with games. This year, the Las Vegas Raiders take on the Kansas City Chiefs.

Last year, the two teams met at Arrowhead Stadium on Christmas Day. The Raiders saw a surprise victory, beating the Chiefs 20-14, thanks to two defensive touchdowns and poor performance from the Kansas City offense.

The rematch will again take place in Kansas City, this time on the day after Thanksgiving. The Raiders plan to bring back QB Aidan O'Connell, who has been on injured reserve since breaking his thumb in Week 7, for the matchup. O'Connell was the starting QB when the Raiders beat the Chiefs on Christmas Day last year.
