Saturday night will be a chilling night at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City as record-low temperatures for the wild card game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins will have fans and players bundling up, hoping to get any semblance of warmth.
As of Saturday afternoon, the temperature for kickoff is forecasted to be zero degrees with wind chill making it feel like negative 23 degrees, according to AccuWeather. If the predictions are accurate, it could be among one of the coldest NFL games ever.
