NFL Pushes Back Start Time For Steelers-Chiefs
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs were scheduled to play their divisional playoff game on Sunday at 1:05 p.m. in Kansas City.
However, the game has been moved to 8:20 p.m. due to an ice storm.
"Due to public safety concerns in light of the forecasted storm this weekend in the Kansas City area, Sunday's Steelers-Chiefs Divisional Playoff game on NBC has been moved to 8:20 p.m. ET," the NFL said in a statement. "Moving the game from the original 1:05 p.m. ET start time will provide local authorities more time to clear roads in the area as the weather is expected to improve throughout Sunday."
