This fall, the Kansas City Chiefs' story will be told like never before in their own ESPN Original Series.
The highly anticipated documentary series, filmed throughout the 2024 season, will include unprecedented access into the players' lives on and off the field. It will highlight last year's franchise-record 15-win regular season, Kansas City's capture of a third-consecutive Lamar Hunt Trophy as AFC champions, and its third-straight Super Bowl appearance in New Orleans.
The series' first trailer, featuring clips following the Super Bowl LIX loss, debuted during Disney's Upfront presentation earlier in the week.
The tremendous success, during which Kansas City made the playoffs every year from 2015 to 2024, won the AFC West Division title nine years running, and appeared in the AFC Championship Game seven years in a row, will be detailed in the ESPN, Disney+, and Skydance Sports production.
Chiefs fans may not want to relive the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Still, there should be plenty of exclusive footage from the record-breaking regular season to entertain and appreciate.

Spectator who threw green NSFW item on Dream court arrested, per report
The spectator who threw a sex toy on the court at this week's Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries game was arrested for their alleged actions, per ESPN. After the very NSFW item was thrown on the court during the game in Atlanta on Tuesday, another similar incident happened on Friday night in Chicago. The green NSFW items throwing controversy at WNBA games, explained ESPN shared the league's stance on its harsh punishments for any future incidents where items are thrown on the court. "The safety and well-being of everyone in our arenas is a top priority for our league. Objects of any kind thrown onto the court or in the seating area can pose a safety risk for players, game officials, and fans," the league said in a statement. "In line with WNBA Arena Security Standards, any fan who intentionally throws an object onto the court will be immediately ejected and face a minimum one-year ban in addition to being subject to arrest and prosecution by local authorities." Who was the individual who threw the sex toy at the WNBA game? There wasn't a name given in this case and there was no information beyond news of the arrest. Was there any legal action taken against the person who threw a sex toy at the Chicago Sky game? That's also unclear at the moment, so maybe we'll find out more soon.

ESPN, NFL Media deal raises real revenue questions for NFLPA
The massive deal between the NFL and ESPN regarding various NFL Media assets raises a wide range of questions. For NFL players, it raises one very important one. What's in it for us? The league reportedly will get equity in the deal, receiving up to 10 percent of ESPN. How will that translate into payment for players? Long-time agent Peter Schaffer flagged the issue, in a Saturday text message to PFT. 'Agents and players see major revenue potential in the ESPN–NFL deal, but there's real concern the league structured it to conceal money from the player pool,' as it relates to, for example, the 'value of game packages.' Among other things, ESPN will get access to the seven regular-season games that the NFL had retained and televised via NFL Network. With the league reportedly getting ESPN ownership in lieu of cash, what does that mean for the broader revenue split? The players currently receive roughly half of the cash that flows through the overall cash register. With the league getting paper ownership and not paper money from the ESPN deal, what will the players receive via a potential bump to their collective pay? 'This could artificially depress the salary cap, directly cutting into player contracts and earnings,' Schaffer said. 'The NFLPA needs to stay on top of this and demand full transparency.' Because the deal has yet to be finalized, it's premature for the union to do anything. When the deal is done, the union will have the right to fully explore the details of the arrangement and, if necessary, to challenge it. Of course, the first order of business for the NFLPA is to appoint a new leader. And the new leader will have plenty of work to do. The ESPN-NFL deal adds another important item to the list: Figuring out how the players will get their fair share of whatever tangible benefits the NFL will receive through its unprecedented partnership with a media conglomerate.
