Chris Jones predicted earlier this week that the Kansas City Chiefs would win “five and up” rings in the years to come. On Thursday, his teammate Tyreek Hill went even further.
The wide receiver said on ESPN’s first take that he believed the Chiefs’ loaded roster, led by star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, would win seven championships.
“Well I’m not going to say he’s telling a lie,” Hill said when asked about Jones’ comments. “But Chris Jones, he’s definitely – he’s definitely a man of his word, and we’re definitely creating something special here at KC, so I don’t see why not. Why say five? Why not make seven rings? we just hunt [Michael] Jordan, so that’s what we do. So I go over five and say seven. “
Jordan won six NBA Championships with the Chicago Bulls. Only two NFL franchises have won six Super Bowls – the New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory in February was the franchise’s first.
On Monday, in a radio interview with KCSP 610 Sports Radio, Jones said, “This is just the start.
“We’re planning to have one more parade and one more parade and one more parade. We’re going to make sure we don’t bring one, not two, not three, not four, but more than five rings to Kansas City. 50 years of waiting, but the wait is over now. It is time to create a dynasty, “he said.
The Chiefs, who have just signed Jones and Mahomes for long-term extensions, are well positioned to dominate in the near future. The Super Bowl champions now have all of their major players signed for at least 2021 while playing in their bounties, setting up a possible dynasty run.
