How to watch Chiefs vs. Buccaneers live for free in MNF Week 9

Going into tonight’s Monday Night Football, the Kansas City Chiefs have not lost a game since Christmas Day 2023, including a playoff run and the Super Bowl in early 2024. They’re currently 7-0 — the only undefeated team left in the NFL now — despite star players showing up less than they have in past seasons.

In tonight’s national matchup, they’ll face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are 4-4 on the season so far. The winners of three straight NFC South titles, the Bucs are currently second in the division, having also dropped two games to the division-leading Atlanta Falcons.

Here’s everything you need to know about Buccaneers vs. Chiefs, from start time and channel, to how to watch for free.
