It’s rare for an NFL player who is in the league for more than five seasons to spend it all with one team.
For example, defensive lineman Mike Danna, who spent his first six seasons with the Chiefs is now with the Bills after signing with Buffalo last month.
Danna played in four Super Bowls and was part of the Chiefs’ back-to-back championships when they beat the Eagles and 49ers. During his time with the Chiefs, Danna played the Bills four times in the postseason and KC won each game. That includes the AFC Championship Game after the 2020 and 2024 seasons.
“It was a pleasure and a blessing to be a part of that journey and that group of guys,” Danna said of the Chiefs, per the Democrat and Chronicle. “I’ll never take any of that stuff for granted. That’s in the past. I’m just glad to be wearing the right uniform, the right colors, so it’s all a pleasure, and I’m excited for it.”
That’s the response one would expect from Danna, because he’s turned the page and is with a new team. One that wants him.
During his time with the Chiefs, Danna seemed to relish his trips to western New York.
“Being a visitor, the first thing I noticed was the Bills Mafia, their crowd, their fan base gets rowdy, gets crazy for all,” Danna said, per the paper. “That’s one of the coolest things, being in that atmosphere at Highmark. Playing there in a playoff game wasn’t easy. Everybody knows going to Highmark Stadium in the playoffs is a rowdy environment, it’s enemy territory. I’m excited to be on the right side of the ball and to have the team and the fans behind us.”
