Travis Kelce may have decided to come back for another season, but the Kansas City Chiefs are losing another longtime legend and fan favorite to retirement.
In a video posted on the team’s X/Twitter account, the Kansas City Chiefs announced that Dan Meers, the man who has donned their “KC Wolf” mascot suit for the past 35 years, has decided to retire.
Meers attended more than 10,000 events as KC Wolf, including 375 total NFL contests, nine Pro Bowls, six international games and five Super Bowls.
A member of the Mascot Hall of Fame since 2006, Meers also experienced multiple incidents during his run as KC Wolf. At the 2001 Pro Bowl, Meers tackled a fan who crashed the field, allowing security officials to step in and remove the spectator.
In Nov. 2013, Meers suffered seven broken ribs, a shattered tailbone and a collapsed lung while practicing a stunt on a zipline. Meers reached a settlement and continued to work with the Kansas City Chiefs for 12 more years.
