    2026 Sporting KC Season Preview - Shades of Blue
    Feb 16 2026
    The 2026 MLS Season is here and we've got your Sporting KC Season Preview! In order to properly find expectations for Sporting KC in 2026, you really need to understand just how bad it was in 2025. We wanted them to burn everything down... they did it. And here we sit in a pile of ash. It's going to be a long rebuild. You'll get a full Roster Rundown. Well... as 'full' as it can get when talking about this roster. We look around the schedule, and the rest of MLS to see what everyone else did this offseason. Plus a preview of Matchday 1 in San Jose. S9:E7 Learn more about your ad choices.
