Chiefs fans show their support for Chase Daniel on Twitter
Less than an hour after the news came that Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith would miss Sunday’s game, backup Chase Daniel’s name was trending on Twitter.
Some of that was due to people outside of Kansas City saying the Chiefs would have no chance against the Chargers.
However, Daniel also received a lot of support:
