The Kansas City Chiefs have released their 2017 training camp schedule and it all gets started on July 28. The Chiefs will have their first of 15 practices that day. Chiefs training camp takes place at the campus of Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, Missouri.
Most of the practices are early in the morning which is ideal to avoid the worst of the heat but not ideal for those who wish to attend during the week. We’ll still see a few hundred Chiefs fans during the slow times. The only afternoon practice is the first one at 3:30 p.m. (Arrowhead Time).
The best days to attend are the Saturday or Sunday practices when they often do something special like a team autograph session or family fun day.
The Chiefs will be ready for camp. They have a few injury questions here and there but the bulk of this team is the same one that won 12 games last year so expectations will be high. This will be the first chance for Chiefs fans to see Patrick Mahomes, who will make his training camp debut. We’re not expecting to see Mahomes much after the preseason ends so get a look while you can.
