"Henne, Henne, Henne!"
First playoff TD pass of his career.
Great story on The Athletic
Link to Chiefs post-game locker room showing the love

Henne has a SB ring: (CBS)
Henne signed with the Chiefs in the 2018 season and didn't take a snap in the 2019 season due to a fractured ankle (Henne was on injured reserve when Matt Moore started in place of Patrick Mahomes). Henne was the backup quarterback for Kansas City's Super Bowl run, earning his first Super Bowl ring.

Henne way you want that's the way you need it,
Henne way you want it.
The league's most respected backup QB at age 37. What a journey he's been on.

He would have gotten more game time if the Jags had threatened to do anything with the ball. Mahohes was next to awful in the 2nd half, but the Jags weren't threatening, for the most part. If the Chiefs would have needed a functional QB, Chad was the one.
I hope he's just as ready to go next week...

Presumably the Chiefs want/need Mahomes later in the playoffs. If they really thought Henne would lead the team better, why would they have a hobbled Mahomes out there getting exposed to further injury?

His teammates really appreciate all the work he's done off the field -- very likely without complaining. Then he gets the rare chance to play in a game, under a very difficult situation, and just crushes it! So cool the hear the love his teammates have for him.
Also, they spelled Mahohes wrong on his jersey.

Back when Gutierrez was expected to be the freshman phenom.... I had a client in the Bay Area... he watched Gutierrez in HS and was really excited about him. When he was injured and Henne took the reigns, never to relinquish them, he kept telling me that Carr was an idiot.... I think Gutierriez ended up transferring to Idaho or Wyoming... He bounced around the NFL for a few years on practice squads, but not nearly the NFL tenure of Henne.

Anybody checked this out with Neidlinger?
