The Kansas City Chiefs is another NFL franchise on the rise in today's professional football climate. The performance of second-year quarterback Patrick Mahomes II has provided the franchise with the spark that they needed to help the team rise to prominence once again. Not only did he put on a dazzling display of trick throws and impossible completions, but Mahomes also racked up 50 touchdowns and put up 5,097 yards in the regular season alone this year.
It looks like the Chiefs have found a franchise quarterback in the 23-year-old from here on out. Unfortunately, prior to the beginning of the season, the Chiefs' overall fan engagement was one of the worst in the entire NFL. Despite ending the 2017-18 NFL season with a division-topping record of 10-6, the organization was unable to corral fans into supporting their success. With the arrival of Patrick Mahomes, things are sure to change for the franchise come next season. The Kansas City Chiefs ranked 29th in fan equity, 28th in social equity, and 28th in road equity.
