“I think everyone in the league probably thinks that”, said the 26-year-old defensive lineman. Even though both franchises have been a part of the NFL since the beginning of professional football in America, they do not share much history or rivalry. But that surely has changed in recent times.

A modern-day rivalry in the making

The Niners and the Chiefs have faced each other merely 16 times and the Chiefs lead the series 9-7. But their competitive edge and rivalry has formed in the last decade itself. During this time, the Chiefs have dominated the Niners.

Only 2 postseason games have been played between the franchises, both of them Super Bowls. The Chiefs have defeated the Niners in their last 4 meetings. The Niners getting only one victory over their modern rivals in the last decade.
