Former Badgers LB Leo Chenal shines in Super Bowl for Chiefs

While your grandpa in Waukesha might still be insisting that it was all scripted by Taylor Swift and the NFL, Wisconsin Badgers football fans know the real ones when we see them—and Chiefs LB Leo Chenal made us all proud in the Super Bowl on Sunday night with a dominant performance.

After earning a sack and a ring for Kansas City in the 2023 Super Bowl, Chenal ended his night this year with 6 tackles (including a clutch tackle for loss).

More importantly, Chenal generated a forced fumble on the best running back on the planet not named Jonathan Taylor, and a key extra point block that helped the Chiefs avoid a one-point deficit at the end of regulation.
