The Chiefs said a defensive legend on his way to retirement brought a sense of leadership when they needed it most.
For three years, safety Tyrann Mathieu delivered the Kansas City Chiefs elite leadership. Now, he's announcing his retirement from the NFL.
From 2019-21, Mathieu was a part of the Kansas City Chiefs. A member of the Super Bowl LIV winning team, Mathieu made his mark on the organization. Mathieu was twice awarded the Derrick Thomas Award, which recognizes the team's most valuable player. He was also a three-time Pro Bowler, twice while with the Chiefs.
