"We are thrilled to share another special playoff campaign video with our fans, once again capturing the magic of the postseason," Chiefs President Mark Donovan said. "'The Magic Number' is an original concept that we created to celebrate the passion, camaraderie, friendship and joy that our fans bring year after year. With this fun and heartwarming story, we wanted to make something that resonates with all of Chiefs Kingdom, putting them at the heart of the action as we embark on another postseason journey."

The video is now live on the club's YouTube channel and social channels. Fans can catch the Chiefs-Texans in the AFC Divisional Round matchup Saturday at 3:30 p.m. CT on ESPN/ABC (KMBC locally in Kansas City).
