As one of the most successful franchises of the past decade, Kansas City owns the second-most wins (91) and is tied for the most playoff appearances (seven) of all NFL teams since Head Coach Andy Reid joined the club in 2013. Off of the field, the Chiefs proudly boast five Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award recipients, tying for the most among any franchise in the league, highlighting the club’s commitment to the community. GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, the home of the Chiefs, is one of the most iconic venues in all of professional sports. As the Guinness World Record holder for loudest crowd roar at an outdoor sports venue, the stadium seats approximately 73,000 fans.
