KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A key player in helping the Kansas City Chiefs break their 50-year Super Bowl drought will return to GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium for Monday's game against the Washington Commanders.
Instead of suiting up, former Chiefs offensive tackle Eric Fisher will be in the thick of the Chiefs Kingdom crowd, serving as the drum honoree.
Fisher was selected first overall by the Chiefs in the 2013 NFL Draft out of Central Michigan.
He spent eight seasons with the Chiefs, anchoring the team's offensive line for 117 games, including 113 starts.
During his Chiefs tenure, Fisher made the Pro Bowl twice in 2018 and 2020 and was a member of the Chiefs' Super Bowl LIV championship team in 2019, their first Super Bowl title since 1969.
Retired United States Air Force Master Sergeant Robert Carter, who has performed the national anthem at Chiefs games before, will do the honors once again Monday.
For those attending the game, parking lot gates will open at 3 p.m.
