The Kansas City Chiefs do team captains a bit differently than other teams.
During the regular season, they have coin toss captains elected for each game, but the unique part is what happens during the playoffs run. Every year ahead of a playoff run, Chiefs players are asked to elect six players to serve as team captains. The coaching staff stays out of the completely player-driven process. The six players selected by their peers will serve as team captains as long as the playoff run lasts. For this particular season, that means they’ll persist through Super Bowl LVII.
