The winner of Saturday afternoon’s game will face off against the winner of Sunday night’s contest between the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills. All four teams made the divisional round last season with the Chiefs taking down the Ravens in the AFC title game and eventually winning their second straight Super Bowl.

As the Chiefs try to make history as the only NFL franchise to win three straight Super Bowls, the team received some unfortunate news on Friday afternoon.

Just 24 hours before their game against the Texans, the team learned that assistant general manager Mike Borgonzi is leaving to become the new general manager for the Tennessee Titans.

“The #Titans are hiring #Chiefs assistant GM Mike Borgonzi as their new general manager, multiple sources tell @NFLonFOX. Borgonzi has spent 16 years in Kansas City, playing a key role alongside Brett Veach in helping construct three Super Bowl-winning rosters,” NFL insider Jordan Schultz said.

“I’ll reiterate what I said during the interview process: You’ll be hard-pressed to find someone more qualified to become a GM than Mike Borgonzi,” he said of the Chiefs executive. “He has had a hand in a part of every single facet of roster building in Kansas City: a team that has won 3 of the past 5 Super Bowls. The draft, free agency, trades, day-to-day roster management. With the number 1 pick on hand, Tennessee can get to work on getting this roster on track.”

While the Chiefs will be happy for Borgonzi as he leaves for a new role, the team likely won’t be the same without his expertise in the front office.

Houston and Kansas City kick off at 4:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
