Buy Chiefs Tickets— Trey Smith (@treysmith) September 20, 2022
The Kansas City Pioneers have added another member of the Kansas City Chiefs to their roster of ambassadors and influencers. Trey Smith officially announced on Tuesday via a video on his Twitter account that he’d be joining the Pioneers esports organization.
“What’s up y’all, my name is Trey Smith, offensive guard for the Kansas City Chiefs,” Smith began. “I’m proud to be a new member of the KC Pioneers. I’m excited to partner with the KC Pioneers. If you know me, gaming is a huge part of who I am. I just want to bring more exposure to esports and gaming in my city.”
Smith isn’t kidding about video games being a big part of his identity. In one of his earliest press conferences with the Kansas City media back in May of 2021, Smith told reporters that he didn’t even watch the 2021 NFL draft. He was at his computer playing Rocket League the whole time.
The starting right guard for the Chiefs joins teammates Mecole Hardman and Andrew Wylie as ambassadors with the Pioneers. Back in September of 2021, we went in-depth with the creatives behind the KC Pioneers on how they’re building bridges between traditional sports and esports. Those bridges have only strengthened with the addition of Smith to the lineup.
