Former Kansas City Chiefs tight end Fred Arbanas - a key player in three of the franchise s most historic games and an influential local politician - has died. He was 82. His death was announced by the Jackson County Democratic Party on Saturday.

Chiefs tight end and local politician Fred Arbanas dead at 82
Arbanas was a part of Kansas City life for more than five decades.
His death was announced by the Jackson County Democratic Party on Saturday.
We are sad to learn about the passing of longtime Jackson County Legislator and advocate Fred Arbanas. His contributions to the county are too long to list here. He was a great man who will be dearly missed. Jackson County Dems (@jaxcodemocrats) April 17, 2021
He was a member of the Dallas Texans team that won the AFL championship in 1962 and the Chiefs teams that appeared in Super Bowl I in 1967 and won Super Bowl IV in 1970. He retired after the subsequent 1970 season, completing a nine-year career in which he had played in every game from 1962 through 1969 and he started in all but two of them.
