The Chiefs’ pin bears the number “142.2.” No, that’s not Andy Reid’s favorite radio station, it’s the decibel level Chiefs fans achieved at Arrowhead Stadium on Sept. 29, 2014, achieving a world record for the loudest crowd noise.

Chiefs Have Quiet, But Critical Decision to Make in 2026 | SI
The Pro Football Network recently ranked the top 100 players to become free agents next offseason. Kansas City has several critical players set to hit free agency in 2026, including veteran cornerback Jaylen Watson. PFN ranked Watson 49th-best free agent available in 2026.
“After a part-time defensive role during his first two seasons, Jaylen Watson became the unquestioned No. 2 cornerback for the Chiefs in 2024. Unfortunately, Watson wasn’t actually on the field most of the season, as a broken fibula and tibia caused him to miss the final 11 regular-season games,” PFN said.
“He did return for all three playoff games and performed well when healthy, allowing 6.9 yards per target in coverage with zero touchdowns. Assuming he can stay healthy in 2025, Watson should be in line for a hefty raise.”

“That kinda stayed with me throughout life: moving out of my parents’ place, moving in with her, sleeping on a two-seater couch. Kind of instilled the will of having faith, belief, and putting God first.
“My whole goal moving to Houston, Mississippi, was to play for my basketball coach. I really had no desire to play football, but the coach wanted me to play, I felt like I could volunteer to play.
“Throughout time, I found the hidden talent that I didn’t know I had and I think my grandmother seen it before anyone. Thank you for everything.
