In recent years, many Chiefs players have dressed to the nines for the walk from their car to the locker room at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

That wasn’t the case Saturday ahead of the Chiefs’ preseason game against the Detroit Lions.

Most of the Chiefs players went with a casual look, likely because it was just a preseason game.

For starters, quarterback Patrick Mahomes dressed a bit more like a fan than the NFL’s best player. He wore a Chiefs cap and T-shirt along with what appeared to be his Mahomes 2 Impact FLX shoes from Adidas.

Mike Danna and Mike Pennel wore white T-shirts, while defensive back Nazeeh Johnson had a matching shirt and pants.

Travis Kelce went with the all-black look, including a subtle nod to the Chicago Bulls with their logo on his shorts. The best player in Bulls history? It’s Michael Jordan, and Kelce was sporting Nike Air Jordans.
