My goal in watching Super Bowl 57 wasn't to root for any particular team, but to get a great game that is close with lead changes and a winner decided in the final minutes. I got exactly what I wanted and it was everything I could hope for in the biggest game of the year.

In 2018, Henne was picked up as a backup quarterback to Patrick Mahomes for the Kansas City Chiefs. Henne did see quite a bit of playing time filling for Mahomes when he got hurt. During the 2022/23 NFL playoffs, Henne came in for an injured Mahomes to beat his former team the Jacksonville Jaguars when he marched the Chiefs down the field for a 98-yard touchdown drive to win the AFC Divisional Playoffs.
