The Kansas City Chiefs entered Super Bowl LIX with immense expectations. The Andy Reid-coached side had the best record in the AFC and made it through the playoffs without major hiccups. Plus, they beat the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII, which started the dynasty.
However, it wasn't to be for the former two-time reigning Super Bowl champions as they were blown out by the Eagles. With that, any hopes of celebrating a historical three-peat have been nixed for the foreseeable future. Hence, what will happen to the merch the Chiefs prepared for players and fans? Let's find out.

Kansas City Chiefs face a pivotal offseason
The Chiefs have some tough decisions to make this offseason. The former Super Bowl champions have been the all-conquering side in the NFL for well over two years, and they're now in a state of wonder.
