“It's crazy how things always come full circle,” the tight end said on the podcast.
“Being at the top of the leaderboard with the Kansas City Chiefs was one of the first organizations to make it all the way through, and it's still at their peak. And a lot of that is due to guys like Tony Gonzalez, who is my mentor.”
“I've tried my whole career to equal what he was to this organization, to this football game,” he added.
“It's just an honor to be a part of an organization where he spent the majority of his career, getting so many receptions and being a part of such a cool conversation.
