    The Chiefs won’t play a game on Amazon Prime until Black Friday when their contest against the Las Vegas Raiders will be on the streaming service.

    But tight end Travis Kelce will make an appearance well before then.

    Kelce is hosting the game show, “Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?” That’s a reboot of “Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?”

    Here is the description of the show from Amazon: “Each game will welcome an adult contestant who will rely on a classroom full of celebrities from comedy, screen, and sports to help them answer 11 questions on a range of subjects, pulled from elementary curriculum, in an effort to win a $100,000 prize. Rather than compete against the stars, contestants enlist their help and, in some cases, can even ‘cheat’ off of them. And on the final question, worth $100,000, the contestant selects one celebrity to discuss the answer with before locking in. The final question is always at the 6th-grade level.”

    The celebrities who will take part in the show are former NFL players Ryan Fitzpatrick and Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, along with Nikki Glaser, Natasha Leggero, Nicole Byer, Ron Funches, Garcelle Beauvais, Lala Kent, Sophia Stallone and Lilly Singh.

    “Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?” will debut on Oct. 16. Amazon released a first trailer for the show on Tuesday. Take a look :
