The Kansas City Chiefs are making sure that everyone who played a part in their Super Bowl LIV win is rewarded for their effort.
The Chiefs had a ring ceremony for the players, coaches and various staff members on Tuesday. Other members of the organization from operations to grounds to media have received their Super Bowl rings too. Now there’s a new group tied to the franchise getting their rings as well.
Members of the Chiefs Ambassadors, a community service-driven organization compiled of former players, appear to be among the members of the franchise that are receiving Super Bowl rings. At least three members of the group shared their customized Super Bowl rings on Twitter.
First up we had former Chiefs WR Danan Hughes, who played for the team from 1993-1998 and is also a new addition to the 2020 broadcasting team.
I'm beside myself that they saw fit to give this! Amazing!
Couldn't get it done playing but stayed here & joined the @kccambassadors, remained tied to the @Chiefs, helping w/Charities, Community outreach & Broadcasts. They value us this much & I'm shook! Unreal Blessing!#GoChiefs pic.twitter.com/YpdSzqKI1K— Danan Hughes (@dahughesguy83) September 2, 2020
Next was former Chiefs WR Marc Boerigter. Boerigter played on the Chiefs from 2002-2005, with a standout rookie campaign catching passes from Trent Green. Check it out:

The Chiefs are the type of franchise that appreciates the people who serve the team on and off the field. It shouldn’t be a surprise that they’re recognizing these former players who’ve made it their mission to help serve the Kansas City community after their playing career has ended. From local scholarship programs to charity events around the city, they’re a part of what makes this team so great.
