Patrick Mahomes leads the Kansas City Chiefs, whose success has been defined by reaching the playoffs each season since his start in 2018. The Chiefs aim for another Super Bowl appearance, especially after last year's near three-peat. With Travis Kelce in the final year of his contract, the team is motivated to send him off in style.

Following a year where Mahomes faced numerous sacks, the Chiefs revamped their offensive line, focusing on protecting their star quarterback. New additions include Jaylon Moore and Josh Simmons, while Creed Humphrey and Trey Smith remain key components. The Chiefs are hopeful their revamped receiving corps, featuring returning stars and new talent, can elevate Mahomes’ passing game. However, their running game, led by Isiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt, must improve.

Defensively, Kansas City under Steve Spagnuolo continues to build around playmakers like Chris Jones and George Karlaftis. With the return of key players and the addition of new faces, the Chiefs hope to enhance their pass rush. Keeping their defensive strategies sharp is essential, especially with injuries affecting their secondary last season.
