Kansas City Chiefs - Bobby Bell

Kansas City Chiefs - Bobby Bell

The Kansas City Chiefs have had several notable Hall of Fame athletes represent their franchise on Sundays including the likes of Willie Lanier, Derrick Thomas, and Tony Gonzalez. It also looks like the Chiefs might have another Hall of Fame prospect on their hands in the form of current quarterback, Patrick Mahomes. But as of right now, the title of greatest Kansas City Chiefs goes to outside linebacker, Bobby Bell. The 6'4, 230lbs linebacker was ahead of his time in regards to versatility and pure athletism. Coming off the edge, Bell caused hell for his opposition throughout the 1960s and '70s.

Prior to playing his college ball at the University of Minnesota, Bell won All-State honors as a quarterback in high school. While in college, he made the jump to defensive lineman, where he contributed to a National Championship (1960) and a Rose Bowl win (1962). Bell would go on to be selected 16th overall in the second round of the 1963 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs where he played all twelve seasons of his career. Throughout his stint as a Chief, Bell was a 6x AFL All-Star, 3x NFL Pro Bowler, and was selected as Defensive Player of the Year once in 1969. Bell helped the Chiefs secure a Super Bowl win in 1970 and holds the record for most interceptions returned by a linebacker with eight total touchdowns.
