Chiefs’ Chris Jones uses Bengals ‘Burrowhead Stadium’ line ahead of AFC Championship showdown

Chris Jones and the Kansas City Chiefs are aware of the Cincinnati Bengals’ trash-talking.
In a rematch from last year, Kansas City and Cincinnati are meeting with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. A year ago, Joe Burrow led Cincinnati to a 27-24 victory in Arrowhead Stadium. That win has prompted Bengals players to start calling the Chiefs’ home “Burrowhead Stadium.” Kansas City players have heard the new nickname.
In his Friday meeting with Chiefs media, former Mississippi State standout Chris Jones made it a point to use “Burrowhead Stadium” multiple times.

Cincinnati and Kansas City met in the regular season on Dec. 4. Burrow and the Bengals were again victorious by a score of 27-24, this time at Paycor Stadium, with the Bengals getting a boost from the crowd.
Sunday’s game is set for 6:30 p.m. ET, airing on CBS. We’ll see if the Bengals will continue to say “Burrowhead Stadium” or if the Chiefs will reclaim Arrowhead Stadium.
