Hallmark's "Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story"
The Chiefs teamed up with Hallmark to create a movie for the holiday season. Here is the synopsis:
"Alana Higman (King) is sure that her family’s lifelong history as Kansas City Chiefs superfans makes them a frontrunner to win the team’s “Fan of the Year” contest. Derrick (Hynes), Director of Fan Engagement, is tasked with evaluating how Alana and her family stack up against the other two finalists. As the pair spends time together, it’s clear there’s a spark between them but when her grandfathers (Begley Jr.) vintage Chiefs, good luck winter hat goes missing, Alana begins to doubt everything she believed about fate, destiny and even questions her future with Derrick – unless, that is, a little Christmas magic can throw a Hail Mary."
The movie will feature Chiefs head coach Andy Reid along with guard Trey Smith, wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr., running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire, and defensive end George Karlaftis, WR Mecole Hardman and G Trey Smith, as well as Donna Kelce.
