The Kansas City Chiefs are no strangers to big offseason changes, but this one’s a little different — and it’s hitting fans right in the feels. While players come and go and coaches switch sidelines, there’s one familiar face that has been a constant for decades.
After 35 years of pumping up Arrowhead Stadium, the man behind the Chiefs’ beloved mascot, Dan Meers, is calling it a career. That’s right, Meers — who portrayed the Chiefs' official mascot, K. C. Wolf, for years — is hanging up his suit before the new season kicks off, leaving behind some truly big paws to fill.
The news was confirmed by the Chiefs on their official X account recently. They posted a video along with a caption that said, "The NFL's longest-tenured mascot is officially hanging up the suit. Thank you Dan for your commitment to Chiefs Kingdom over the past 35 years."
