KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Chiefs’ $20 million cornerback expressed boundless excitement in Missouri, vowing to chase Super Bowl LX with his new team, sources told ESPN. His passion ignites Chiefs Kingdom’s championship dreams.
Kristian Fulton said, “I’m really surprised by the fans here. I’ve never seen a fanbase so passionate yet respectful like Chiefs fans. They filled the OTA field without Mahomes, showing they support the whole team.”
Signed from the Chargers in March 2025 for two years, $20 million, Fulton recorded 4 pass deflections and 1 interception in 2024. Injuries limited his snaps, per Pro-Football-Reference.
Patrick Mahomes, with 4,159 passing yards in 2024, welcomed Fulton’s energy. “Kristian’s a lockdown guy,” Mahomes said, noting his fit with Trent McDuffie, per The Athletic.
Fulton’s 2024 struggles, with only 48% snap share due to a hamstring injury, didn’t dim his Chiefs enthusiasm. “This culture’s electric,” he told ESPN, contrasting his Titans tenure.
With $11.2 million in cap space, Kansas City’s 2025 roster, bolstered by Josh Simmons and Jalen Royals, eyes Super Bowl LX. Fulton’s 17 career pass deflections add depth, per NFL.com.
Chiefs Kingdom roared: “Fulton’s our spark!” fans cheered, per local reports. His versatility strengthens a secondary aiming to rebound from a 40-22 Super Bowl LIX loss.
As the Chiefs prep for their September 5 Brazil opener, Fulton’s zeal fuels their title chase. Can he lock down a Super Bowl run? Follow ESPN for updates!
