Chiefs-related fantasy football team names to make you laugh

Millions of fantasy football teams are drafting ahead of the NFL’s impending regular-season return. How can Kansas City Chiefs fans show their fandom with a unique fantasy football team name?

The Kansas City Chiefs fanbase has grown exponentially since head coach Andy Reid took control of the team, and even more so since the debut of generational quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The Chiefs are no longer the local team, with a good atmosphere and a spirited, underdog approach. Now, they are amongst the NFL’s top teams, and with that rise comes a farther fan base reach. Fans can represent their favorite team with a unique fantasy football team name.

Fantasy football is no longer a niche aspect of NFL fandom. According to ESPN, more than 40 million individuals in the United States played fantasy football in the 2021 season. The number of players and the geographical area continues to grow, with players in the United Kingdom, Germany, and the Philippines. Fantasy football players range from die-hard football fans to fans of the numbers and everything in between.

Players can overthink their fantasy football team names. At the end of the day, a name is a way to make league-mates chuckle or stand out from one another. After hours and hours of research about fantasy roster building, maintaining, and trying to set a team up for success, a team name can get lost in the shuffle. If fantasy players are looking for a Chiefs-related fantasy team name, here are 10 that will make your league-mates chuckle.

Drafting an RB? That’s Helaireous.

Fantasy football highbrows have preached a “zero running back” approach to a fantasy football team. If someone didn’t draft a running back, they might end up with one of the Chiefs’ running backs.

Y-M-KelCe-A

A classic song doesn’t get old, much like the Chiefs’ resident ageless wonder, tight end Travis Kelce.

Chilling with Mahomies

Mahomes seems like an NFL player you’d want to have a beer with. Or just chill with him over a good burger from one of his Whataburger locations.

The Skyy’s My Limit

Rookie wide receiver Skyy Moore has many fantasy football team name potentials. One might say he has “Moore” to offer.

Greek Freak ‘Til the Bye Week

Do you start out strong, then fall off as the football season goes along? Then dig at yourself while fans wait for a good nickname for rookie defensive end George Karlaftis.

Creed is Good (Not the Band)

Credit 610 Sports for this one, but center Creed Humphery certainly has a cult following in Kansas City. He can only take the Chiefs “Higher” in 2022.

All the Good JuJu

Wide receiver Juju Smith-Schuster had a lot of bad luck in his final year with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Hopefully, coming to Kansas City gives him some good juju.

That’s Chenal She Wrote

If rookie linebacker Leo Chenal has his way, he will be abruptly ending drives and plays with his violence and physicality.

Running up that Thornhill

Look, viewers of the most recent season of Netflix’s hit series “Stranger Things” will get this one. And that is a lot of people.

Don’t You Forget About Mecole

Wide receiver Mecole Hardman was nearly forgotten about on this list. Like his draft stock, his name possibilities are very limited.
