The Chiefs want to turn Arrowhead Stadium into a voting location this November

The aftermath of a Super Bowl title has been overshadowed by one of the most unusual and unpredictable summers in NFL history.

Kansas City is not immune.

Rather than an offseason defined by a championship celebration, the Chiefs have been occupied instead with real-world issues, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, deciding whether to allow fans at home games, furthering discussions with Native Americans on traditions like headdresses and the chop, as well as Black Lives Matter and voter registration.

Chiefs team president Mark Donovan spoke with the media on a Zoom call Wednesday, addressing all of those topics.

Being a Raider fan and all ... safe to say ... many of the local brothers and sisters will be making their first visit.
