The game resulted in a 26-7 victory for Kansas City, behind stellar performances from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Mahomes, 28, suffered a cracked helmet during the ice-cold matchup. The helmet's manufacturers, VICIS, said the freezing temperatures were "bound to test" the equipment's limits in a statement on social media.

"It was a first for me," Mahomes told reporters after the game regarding his cracked helmet.

Chiefs' star tight end Travis Kelce said he was "cold as f---" during the game when reflecting on the win during an episode of his podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce.

Kelce, 34, added, "it was shocking how cold it was."

"You're by the heaters, you're in the locker room and then when you go out on the field it's like — the temperature drops right now. And you feel it in your hands, you feel it in your toes, your face. Everyone saw Coach Reid's 'stache, like, I could feel my mustache hardening up," he shared.

Kelce said that the freezing temperatures had him "running over to heaters to warm up my hands and feet to try and get feeling back," which was "probably the first game" he's ever had to do that. "It was that freaking cold," he added.

The superstar tight end also shared a horror story from one of his teammates, whose preparations for the freezing temperatures "backfired."

Though he kept the player's identity a secret, he said that one guy wore two pairs of socks with two foot warmers inside his shoe and "ended up getting two golf sized blisters on the top of his feet."

"It was nuts, man," Kelce said.

Next, the Chiefs will travel to upstate New York to face off against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
