Fans of the Kansas City Chiefs are looking ahead to the 2025 season after the 2024 campaign ended in heartbreak. ESPN, however, is granting the fans one more chance to relieve the 2024 NFL season this fall, with a new documentary series.
ESPN released its first teaser trailer for their upcoming docuseries "The Kingdom", which will feature six episodes as it follows the Chiefs during the 2024 NFL season. The documentary features exclusive behind the scenes access to the Chiefs on and off the field as the team attempted to become the first three-peat Super Bowl Champions.
The trailer shows a glimpse of what is to be expected from the series, but Patrick Mahomes joined in on the conversation, generating hype via a press releasee.
“Last season, the Kansas City Chiefs gave ESPN unfiltered access to our lives – on and off the field,” Mahomes said in the press release. “The result is an incredible six-episode series called The Kingdom that showcases the true heart of our great city, the team, and what it takes to be a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. We dive into the history and legacy of the franchise, from the early days in Texas all the way to our third-straight Super Bowl appearance. It was an honor to be a part of this incredible project, and I can’t wait for all of you to see it.”
ESPN's press release further provides a description of what to expect in the series.
"The six-episode docuseries is expected to premiere later this year on ESPN and Disney+ and will explore the franchise’s indelible and distinctive place in the NFL’s landscape for over more than six decades of history while offering an exclusive, revealing chronicle of the team’s extraordinary 2024 season.
"Told through the lens of current-day players, coaches, and executive leaders, following them both on and off the field all season long, the series will also weave together tales of the team’s long and celebrated history, its proud culture, as well as the Chiefs’ deeply ingrained place in the Kansas City community and the wider sports landscape.''
