Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce took the time to give a shout-out to one of the team’s lesser-known coaches for his contributions in the club’s Super Bowl 58 triumph last Sunday.
During the latest edition of the “New Heights” podcast that he co-hosts with older brother Jason Kelce of the Philadelphia Eagles (h/t Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk), Travis credited Chiefs statistical analysis coordinator for having his team prepared for overtime in the Super Bowl 58 win over the San Francisco 49ers:
“My guy Mike Frazier. He’s the one that goes through all these scenarios, all these big-time situations, end of half, end of game, rule changes, he comes up and stands in front of the team, and when he comes in front of the team everyone yells, ‘Fraaaaz!’”
“He goes over these kinds of situations. I’m pretty sure we went over the overtime rules three times, four times in a two-week span. Every single week we talked about overtime rules in the playoffs and Frazier was up front, giving what we would do in all these scenarios. So everybody on the team, we knew exactly what the best situation was, how we were going to handle it, how we were going to attack it. And a guy like that, man, you don’t realize how big of a job it is to do that kind of stuff.”
The 49ers and Chiefs exchanged late field goals to send Super Bowl 58 into overtime. This was only the second Super Bowl contest to require OT, with the New England Patriots-Atlanta Falcons showdown seven years earlier going the distance.
The Chiefs walked it off when Patrick Mahomes found a wide open Mecole Hardman in the end zone for the touchdown. With the victory, Kansas City became the first team to repeat as Super Bowl champions since the 2003 and ’04 New England Patriots.
