Kansas City Chiefs to face player No. 4 of the 'NFL Top 100' in 2026

The "NFL Top 100 Players" is an annual NFL offseason tradition. There are a few names from the Kansas City Chiefs expected to make the cut, but there are also many opponents featured in this year's rankings. Player No. 4 is a player they are scheduled to face this coming season.

No. 4 is Los Angeles Rams Quarterback Matthew Stafford.

Stafford started all 17 games he played for the Rams in 2025, finishing the season with 4,707 passing yards and a team-record 46 touchdown passes in the regular season; he led the NFL in both categories. Stafford finished with a 109.2 passer rating and was named to the Pro Bowl and AP first-team All-Pro, on his way to being named the 2026 Most Valuable Player.

Stafford and the Rams will host the Chiefs in Week 13 of the 2026 season on Thursday Night Football, December 3, at SoFi Stadium.

Produced by NFL Films and the X Original Series, the new season of NFL Top 100 features short-form episodes that reveal the league's top players, as voted on exclusively by current NFL players. Episodes debut on X on weekdays and will air later on NFL+, as well as on other NFL-owned and operated social media platforms.
