Chiefs’ Derrick Thomas enters the Pro Football Hall of Fame

We’re not shedding any tears over Carl Peterson’s exit from Kansas City’s front office. But damn, the guy knows how to play the role of father-figure in situations like Saturday night’s induction of Chiefs legend Derrick Thomas into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Just listen to Peterson’s classy tribute (not that we expected anything less) to the late Chiefs linebacker.

For those who need a reminder of No. 58’s on-field appetite for destruction, here’s the tribute video. Also, here’s the post-induction interview with Peterson and Thomas’ son, Derrion Thomas.
