Its doubtful that the Chiefs will ever reveal a list of ex-players who have gotten Super Bowl rings to acknowledge their contributions to the franchise. Like the big man stated … what else would you anticipate from the best sports organization in the world?
And yes … that might even include players like former Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles and current Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith.
On Thursday, the one-and-only Nigerian Nightmare– previous Kansas City Chiefs running back Christian Okoye– tweeted that he had received an unforeseen present from the organization: his extremely own Super Bowl ring.
It follows that other Chiefs Ring of Honor gamers who never ever got to bet a championship– individuals like Will Shields, Tony Richardson, Deron Cherry and Tony Gonzalez– might also remain in line to receive a surprise present with a return address on One Arrowhead Drive.
This is likely a “reproduction” Super Bowl ring. Language in the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement allows the production of these reproduction rings for practice-squad gamers and other members of the company– although the franchise has to bear the expense for them. Simply the exact same, this is a grand gesture the Chiefs have actually made for a Ring of Honor player like Okoye, who played for the team from 1987 through 1992.
