His playoff performance this past year was huge in us getting that trophy,

Textbook definition of a role-player who comes up BIG when it counts. Chiefs had a ton of those in the 90’s-early 2000’s it felt like - but unfortunately no QB to capitalize off of them.
Dan is perfect in small bursts, especially if he sort of disappears from the opponent’s playbook. He came up BIG in a starter capacity against the Texans and Titans. The 49ers made a point to target him and showed why he is in a role player capacity, but I still did admire how he took on Kittle the entire game. He got his ass handed to him on multiple occasions, but he kept Kittle engaged and never backed down. You have to admire that.
