The Chiefs have already installed Tyler Palko in as the new starter for the offense. The Pittsburgh Panther product has made just two appearances in games since he made the 53-man roster back in 2010, as he will make his first professional start of his career versus the New England Patriots on Monday Night Football.

The game kicks off at 8:20 p.m. ET, good luck to you Mr. Palko.
