The Kansas City Chiefs are officially Super Bowl champions once again.

On the back of a prolific offensive performance led by Patrick Mahomes, KC was just too much for the Philadelphia Eagles. After the game, the celebration was magnificent.

One Chiefs player got to rub salt in the wound for a division rival, though.

On social media, Chiefs running back Melvin Gordon poked some fun at a Chargers fan that tweeted at him. 

Gordon was a practice squad player for KC, but he got a ring nonetheless.

For Gordon, it'll be interesting to see where he goes during this off-season. He could return to the Chiefs.

It's possible that he heads to a team with more opportunity for playing time, though.

He's shown some flashes of talent over the past couple seasons, but injuries have slowed him down a bit as well. With the emergence of Isiah Pacheco, the Chiefs have their starting running back. Their depth played well this season as well.

Regardless, KC fans will love to see Gordon's shade towards his former team in the AFC West.
