The Kansas City Chiefs lost the Super Bowl 40-22 against the Philadelphia Eagles and, after this shocking result, they couldn’t win their third consecutive championship. A disappointing ending for the dynasty.

Now, as usually happens with all great teams in history, the salary cap will be their biggest enemy in the coming weeks, and keeping the roster intact looks like an almost impossible challenge for Brett Veach and Andy Reid.

Travis Kelce is undecided about his future, Rashee Rice’s status is uncertain due to the severe knee injury he suffered, and in another tough blow to the offense, Patrick Mahomes could lose DeAndre Hopkins in free agency.
