With Kansas City and Tennessee advancing to next week’s AFC Championship Game, Georgia is guaranteed to have a player on a Super Bowl roster for the 19th consecutive year.

The Chiefs boast rookie receiver/kick returner Mecole Hardman and the Titans’ offensive line is anchored by 8-year veteran Ben Jones at center. Tennessee also has rookie linebacker D’Andre Walker on injured reserve.

The Chiefs will entertain the Titans next Sunday at 3:05 p.m. Super Bowl LIV will be Feb. 2 in Miami Gardens, Fla.
