The former Giants player was considered more of a headache than help. But in the Super Bowl LVII game, he showed he has changed. The 24-year-old wide receiver took over the Chiefs vs Eagles game. The Chiefs were experiencing trouble before halftime. But after Rihanna’s performance, Kadarius Toney came to the rescue. The 24-year-old turned the game upside down. K.C. eventually defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. The winning team then went on to celebrate their third Super Bowl win. And boy, did Toney take it to the next level.
The Giants drafted Toney in 2021. They thought him to be a skilled and talented player. But the young player did not practice a lot. He was even down with a hamstring injury. Therefore, the team thought that the product of the University of Florida did not take the job seriously. Consequently, New York decided it would be best if they sent him to the Chiefs. Surprisingly, with the Chiefs, everybody saw a different and better side of him.

Toney ended up flipping the Super Bowl on its head on Sunday night in Arizona with a 65-yard punt return in the fourth quarter, giving the Chiefs a first-and-goal from the Philadelphia 5-yard line with 10:11 left in the game.
After trailing 24-14 at the half, Toney grabbed a 5-yard touchdown throw from Patrick Mahomes to give the Chiefs a 28-27 advantage.
He was so happy that the wideout got the team’s logo tattooed on his torso. He also made the tattoo his Twitter profile picture. When fans saw this, some supported his decision, while some fans were not sure if getting a tattoo was a good idea.
That’s going to be awkward if he leaves to another team.

This fan supported Toney’s decision.
One of my favorite human emotions is gratitude. It's pretty clear that Toney is grateful to be a Chief.
And we are damn lucky to have him. Just glad the Giants don't know what they are doing. He and Moore have a chance to become beasts.

Does the tattoo give this idea that this fan wrote? Toney is known for getting tattoos of the team he played for though.
I mean, if that doesn’t scream “I want to retire a Chief”, I don’t know what does

The only complaint this fan has was the tattoo was too big.
It was a mistake to make it so big. No room for the next one or two. Otherwise … pic.twitter.com/raVfJMPLDR

For the Giants, the trade was a reaction to Toney’s actions. But the way he gelled and fit with the Chiefs was witnessed in the Super Bowl game. Probably that is why he inked the team’s name on his body. May his entire body get covered with future Super Bowl wins.
