My family and I would like to invite fans to celebrate Len's many contributions to the Chiefs and the game of professional football, as well as his unwavering commitment to his adopted hometown of Kansas City," Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt said. "There is no more revered place inside GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium than the new Hall of Honor, and we believe this will offer a fitting tribute for our great fans to remember one of the true legends of the game."
