The awards and accolades keep rolling in for the Kansas City Chiefs, awaiting an opponent in the postseason after their bye week. Trey Smith has taken his game to another level this season, earning his first Pro Bowl selection and being a key member of the highly respected interior offensive line.

In a special segment on the latest episode of ‘The Pat McAfee Show,’ Smith was honored with ‘The Trenchy Award’ for the best guard of the season. McAfee announced the award alongside retired veteran NFL center A.Q. Shipley, who praised the former Tennessee Volunteers standout. He’s the best that you’re going to see, and he plays the game the right way,” said Shipley, highlighting a specific highlight from Smith’s 2024 season.

Shipley mentioned Joe Thuney as another candidate, but due to his recent move to left tackle, he couldn’t qualify for the interior offensive lineman honor. The segment briefly showcased Smith’s performance earlier in the season against Fred Warner of the San Francisco 49ers.

The two-time Super Bowl champion was drafted in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and has quickly become an impact player on the Chiefs’ offensive line.
