The team explained that there’s plenty of symbolism, starting with the interlocking arrowhead logo made from 16 custom-cut rubies to represent the 16 division titles in franchise history.
The word ‘world’ features 39 diamonds to represent the number of touchdowns the team scored last season, while the corresponding word ‘champions’ contains 70 diamonds to represent the points scored in the Chiefs’ three AFC playoff wins.
The underside of the ring also features a diagram of the game-winning play that saw the Chiefs defeat the San Francisco 49ers in overtime back in February.
‘Earning back-to-back Super Bowl championships is an incredibly difficult and rare feat. It helps define legacies for franchises, coaches, players, and is a testament to the commitment and dedication that is required from everyone in the organization,’ Chiefs President Mark Donovan said.
‘This incredible piece of wearable art is a true symbol of the journey that the team took to secure the franchise’s fourth Lombardi Trophy, and we couldn’t be prouder to represent Chiefs Kingdom as champions once again,’ he added.
Kelce arrived at the ceremony looking red hot, opting for a bold all-red ensemble.
