The New Orleans Saints kickoff their preseason action against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. It'll be a tough matchup to start off their game action, but it'll be good for the Saints. According to HC Dennis Allen, everyone who is healthy is going to play on Sunday against Kansas City. On the flip-side, we now know who will get on the field for the Chiefs. 

Andy Reid said quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the rest of their available starters on offense will play. They'll play roughly a quarter of action. It is worth noting that their first drive could be the only one for the Chiefs stars if they score. That's normally how KC runs their operation in Week 1 of the preseason.

Accordingly, the Saints will need to prepare to stop one of the best offenses in the NFL during the first quarter. Expect to see plenty of starters early in the game for New Orleans, too. They probably won't stay in for too long, but you'll get a glimpse of them to kick off this year's game action.
