Former Dallas TE Peyton Hendershot calls out 'extracurriculars' with Cowboys in comparison with Chiefs
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Peyton Hendershot will wrap up his third NFL season on Sunday. He’s playing in the first Super Bowl of his career after spending the first two seasons of his pro career with the Dallas Cowboys.
Before Sunday’s championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles, Hendershot revealed the biggest difference he’s experienced playing for the Chiefs this season compared to what he learned during his time with the Cowboys.
“This is throwing no strays but I just feel like when I came to Kansas City, my first experience in the NFL was the Cowboys so that’s all I knew,” Hendershot said during his media appearance during Super Bowl week. “I just feel like here, it’s strictly football and winning. Nothing else but just football and winning. And I feel like with the Cowboys it’s a little bit more like the public image, you know what I’m saying? The extracurriculars that come with it, too. And here it’s just — let’s just win football.”
Hendershot hasn’t seen the field all too often, playing in nine games including this postseason in the AFC Championship game against the Buffalo Bills. In total, he caught five passes for 51 yards during his first season with the Chiefs.
Coming to Kansas City in the offseason, the former Indiana Hoosier noticed some differences, as well as some familiarities right away.
“It’s not as paramount as here,” he said of the pageantry that comes with playing for the Dallas Cowboys. “Here (Kansas City), I’ve never heard anything but football and what we’re trying to do. When you’re in Dallas, sometimes it’s about signings and the pictures and events. And I’m just a small-town kid from Indiana, so it’s good to be back in this type of (Midwestern) environment.”
However, being in Dallas for the time he did prepare him for the limelight that also comes with playing for the Kansas City Chiefs.
“One of the things that helped me from being on the Cowboy was the atmosphere. I can be at all these events, Super Bowl, whatever. I’m not really that anxious and nervous because playing for the Cowboys is already to that magnitude and blown up.
“And then the D-Line, going against all of them, D-Law (DeMarcus Lawrence), Micah (Parsons), you can go up against any of these other guys in the league. I was going against them every day in practice.”
Hendershot will take the experience he gained playing in front of the bright lights in Dallas, and the winning culture in Kansas City, and take it into Sunday to try and help his team win a third-straight Super Bowl.
Kickoff between the Chiefs and Eagles is set for Sunday, Feb. 9 at 6:30 p.m. ET live on FOX.
DALLAS – Dallas police need a name for a dangerous robber who pulled a gun on a 7-Eleven clerk and walked out with the cash register drawer.
He was caught on camera. But it’s been six months, and he’s still at large.
7-Eleven Robberies
What we know:
The robbery in question happened on Jan. 13 around 10:30 p.m. at the store at 302 North Marsalis Avenue.
A Black male who is about 5 feet 8 inches tall and about 170 to 180 pounds walked in and waited until no other customers were inside.
“After it’s empty, he displays a handgun and points it at the cashier,” said Det. Eduardo Lopez Villa. “I don’t know what he said. He just demanded the cash from the cash register.”
Det. Villa said the suspect took the whole cash register drawer before fleeing eastbound on foot on 8th Street.

The detective believes anyone who knows the suspect will be able to recognize him.
“Yes, most definitely based on the video and the screenshot. If you know him, you’ll recognize him,” he said.
Tipsters can call or text Det. Villa at 469-755-8445.
“I need his information so I can talk to him about this incident,” he said.
