The Subject: Wide receiver Xavier Worthy shares a moment with wide receiver Hollywood Brown following the Chiefs’ loss in Super Bowl LIX.<\/p>\n
Camera Model: Canon EOS R1<\/p>\n
Q: What was going on here, and why did you pick this photo as part of our collection?<\/p>\n
Sanders: “This was a bad day, but \u2013 even when things are going wrong \u2013 as a photographer, you still have to do your job. You still have to document history and tell a story. Everything we do revolves around storytelling, so we had to continue to work,” Sanders said. “With this one, you can see how disappointed Xavier is. He has the towel over his head as the confetti is falling behind him. He’s saying something to Hollywood, and I’m sure that conversation is something like, ‘We’re going to be back. We’re going to work, we’re going to get back, and we’re going to redeem this loss.’ You can see that emotion in Xavier’s face.”<\/p>\n
Q: What did this photo say about the brotherhood on this team?<\/p>\n
Sanders: “Coach Reid’s motto is ‘Come in as teammates, leave as family.’ This is a real family moment,” Sanders said. “It’s two brothers coming together to support and encourage one another.”<\/p>\n
Q: You touched on this a little bit already, but how difficult is it to keep shooting during moments like this?<\/p>\n
Sanders: “That’s one of the things about being a photographer. You’re watching these moments happen through your lens, and that means taking in the bad with the good,” Sanders said. “You have to continue to work without stopping to watch the moment. That’s what separates the real professionals. You have to keep making images no matter what.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Subject: Wide receiver Xavier Worthy shares a moment with wide receiver Hollywood Brown following the Chiefs’ loss…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":171526,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2063],"tags":[501,346,7,497,118,110,2438,2437,6,498,499,505,503,502,504,500],"class_list":{"0":"post-171525","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-kansas-city-chiefs","8":"tag-andy-reid","9":"tag-chiefs","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-geha-field-at-arrowhead-stadium","12":"tag-kansas-city","13":"tag-kansas-city-chiefs","14":"tag-kansascity","15":"tag-kansascitychiefs","16":"tag-nfl","17":"tag-nfl-football","18":"tag-patrick-mahomes","19":"tag-super-bowl","20":"tag-super-bowl-iv","21":"tag-super-bowl-liv","22":"tag-super-bowl-lvii","23":"tag-travis-kelce"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114774902475538814","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=171525"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/171525\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/171526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=171525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=171525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=171525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
