The Kansas City Chiefs recently did something that most knew was inevitable but didn’t want to believe: they released Eric Berry. Berry is more than just a normal player. When he put on that uniform, No. 29, it meant something more. It meant something to the players and coaching staff, but most importantly, the fans.
Nine years ago, the Chiefs went 4-12 in the 2009 NFL season, which was an improvement from the 2-12 record they amassed in the previous 2008 season. It is often said that everything happens for a reason. Every little thing that goes wrong, everything that goes right—it all happens for a reason.
