Honorable Mention: Team Captains Who Overcame Personal Challenges Nominated for Sports Team of the Year Award at Annual SBJ

The Sports Business Journal is praising the Kansas City Chiefs organization. On Monday, it was announced that the franchise was nominated for Sports Team of the Year at the 17th Annual Sports Business Awards.

The publication considered the Chiefs for the esteemed honor based on several highlighted qualities, such as the custom-wrapped ChampionShip serving as the central entertainment and activity hub for fans during their trip to Frankfurt, Germany, last November for their matchup against the Miami Dolphins. They also hosted the second-highest NFL Draft attendance in event history and the 2023 NFL Kickoff Game at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

“It is an incredible honor for our entire organization to be nominated for the Sports Business Awards’ ‘Team of the Year’ because it represents so much hard work and dedication from throughout the organization,” Chiefs President Mark Donovan said in a statement. “Sports Business Journal has long been the industry standard for what is happening in the world of sports business.

“Similarly, the Sports Business Awards have become the ultimate recognition for the tireless work that goes into creating, innovating, and pushing the envelope in this space. We extend our congratulations to the other nominees for ‘Team of the Year’ as well as all the groups and individuals that have been nominated across the other categories.”

The other four teams nominated alongside the Chiefs in the category are Inter Miami CF (MLS), the Minnesota Timberwolves (NBA), the Texas Rangers (MLB), and the Vegas Golden Knights (NHL). The Chiefs being honored for their work as a franchise behind the scenes and their on-the-field success helps calm the controversy of the recent NFLPA Report Card grade.

The winner will be announced at a live dinner and awards ceremony on Wednesday, May 22, at the New York Marriott Marquis Times Square in New York City.
