The Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl LVII, but backup quarterback Chad Henne celebrated his entire NFL career as well. “Calling it a career,” he captioned his celebratory Instagram post, announcing his retirement from the sport after playing for more than a decade. “Capping it off with @budlight and another ring.”
In the AFC Divisional Round against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Henne had to step in the game after Patrick Mahomes suffered a high-ankle sprain. Although Mahomes was able to resume play later in the game, the backup quarterback helped the Chiefs score a touchdown in the first quarter with an impressive drive down the field.
“I don’t know if it’s like riding a bike, but you’re always prepared,” Henne said in the post-game press conference. He then credited the rest of the offense for their performance as it helped him lead the team to success, despite being thrown into the game. “I think you just stay ready. And when your number’s called, you just go in there and do what you did in practice and the meeting rooms and you just take it to the game.”
