When it comes to the topic of Super Bowl participation, the Kansas City Chiefs are an absolute permanent candidate. The team has reached the final four times in the last five years. In 2024, the Chiefs around star quarterback Patrick Mahomes (28) made their fourth Super Bowl entry perfect.

The Kansas City Chiefs were formed in 1960 from the Dallas Texans, founded in 1952. After the formation of the Dallas Cowboys (1960), the Texans had to look for a new market and relocate. The Kansas City Texans later became the Kansas City Chiefs.

Andy Reid (65) has been the Chiefs' head coach since 2013. Under Reid, Kansas City has won the division eight times. And since the signing of megastar Patrick Mahomes (28), the team has been the permanent favorite in the AFC West.

Some NFL teams last played in a Super Bowl decades ago. Mahomes and the Chiefs have been to the Finals four times in the last five years. Mahomes and NFL legend Tom Brady (46) are the only two quarterbacks to have made it to the Super Bowl at least three times in their first six seasons.
