And was not put on waivers after the Super Bowl. He was waived in January before the Chiefs met the Bengals, but it could only be made official now. Mainly special teams, but some CB action.

I don't know if PS guys get rings, but yeah, if you're on the roster during that season you get a ring. Lammons played 75% of the regular season special teams snaps for the Chiefs in 2022, and played 82% of the ST snaps against the Jags in the postseason.

Quote:Section 15. Practice Squad Super Bowl Rings: Practice Squad players on a Club that wins the Super Bowl at the time of the Super Bowl will be entitled to a ring similar in appearance to the one provided to players on the Active/Inactive List but the Club, in its sole discretion, may provide any Practice Squad player with a ring of lesser value.

But since he wasn't officially a Bengals until after the Super Bowl, even if traded to them before the Bengals/Chiefs game, it does make sense he would get a ring.

It's all about how cheap your owner is. The NFL only covers the cost of 150 SB rings for a team and that includes Players, Owners, GM/FO, Coaches, etc. The Patriots last SB win they ordered over 230 rings, I believe. I know there are different tiers of ring, so players get a nicer one than say the team cooks or trainers.

I know there are MLB teams that gave a ring to every player that was on their major league roster for even 1 day that season. It is a long journey to win a championship, and it is good culture to recognize everyone who contributed.

McPherson got scary at times.
Punting was a completely predictable disaster that the team just allowed to happen.
Punt coverage was really bad (allowed 6th highest ret avg in the NFL, might be in part because of bad punting).
Kick returning was bad (27th in kick return avg).

Panthers, Raiders, Packers, and Steelers had more.  The Chiefs and Commanders were tied with the Bengals at 18.  Per the same website the Bengals had 7 special teams penalties in 2021.  So the ST penalties increased significantly in 2022.   In 2020 they had 6.
