KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Football is back at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, and so is the confidence of the huge fan base known as Chiefs Kingdom.
Friday marked the last preseason game before the Chiefs open their regular season in São Paulo, Brazil on September 5th.
Jermaine Jenkins moved to Kansas City from Savannah, GA, 20 years ago.
He said he automatically became a Chiefs fan.
"We got Patrick Mahomes. What else we need? What else we need? What else we need?" Jenkins said.
The Chiefs all three of their preseason games, one against the Arizona Cardinals and the other against the Seattle Seahawks.
Jessica Davidson, a season ticket holder since 2018, said everyone knows it's the regular season that matters.
"Preseason, we consider this practice," Davidson said. "We’re coming back with a vengeance."
Jordan Gray, born and raised in Kansas City, said she likes what she's been seeing from the team despite the losses in preseason.
Gray said: "Some of the plays these boys have been displaying…gas…we on it."
Chiefs Kingdom is back to bringing the energy, setting the tone, and many of the fans have no doubt the team will match it.
Jenkins said: "Everybody is counting us out. I'm not sure why...I'm not sure why."
