After a long wait, August 28 is shaping up to be a day when almost every sports fan will have a chance to watch live games from their favorite leagues. However, tennis and MLS fans will have to wait a little longer, as there are no major live games scheduled in either sport that day. The same goes for track and field fans. For motorsports fans, though, it will be a busy Daytona weekend, while NFL fans can look forward to 10 games during Week 3 of the preseason. So, want a glimpse of what’s on the schedule?

Much of the attention was expected to be on Patrick Mahomes and his potential appearance in the Kansas City Chiefs’ preseason finale against the Seattle Seahawks on Friday. The two-time MVP has yet to play in a preseason game since suffering a ligament tear in his knee last December. Naturally, that made the Seahawks matchup an intriguing one, especially with Kansas City’s preseason finale approaching.

However, fans will have to wait a little longer. Mahomes is not expected to take the field Friday, which may come as a disappointment to many. Still, there are plenty of other matchups on the schedule that could make up for his absence. Let’s take a look at all the games and broadcast details for the day.
