Chairman and CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs and FC Dallas

_________________

Clark Hunt is Chairman and CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League and FC Dallas of Major League Soccer. 

Hunt has been the guiding force behind the resurgence of the Chiefs, transforming the franchise into one of the most successful teams in the NFL over the last decade. The Chiefs are reigning back-to-back Super Bowl Champions, and have won the Lombardi Trophy in three of the last five seasons. 

Hunt has hoisted the award that bears his father’s name – the Lamar Hunt Trophy – four times in the past five years, as the club claimed the AFC championship and earned Super Bowl appearances following the 2019, 2020, 2022, and 2023 seasons. Kansas City has won eight consecutive AFC West Division titles, the second-longest streak of division championships in the 105-year history of the NFL. 

Hunt is a leading voice among NFL and MLS owners. He is chairman of the NFL Finance Committee, and he serves on the league’s Conduct, International, and Management Council committees. He has helped steer the league’s international marketing efforts, and guided the league’s significant international growth over the last decade. In the MLS, Hunt is a member of the Board of Governors, and chairs the Product Strategy Committee. He and his family were instrumental in bringing the 2026 FIFA World Cup to North America, and Hunt served as co-chair of the successful bid to host World Cup matches in Kansas City.

In 2022 Hunt was inducted into the Dallas Business Hall of Fame. He is also the recipient of the Russel H. Perry Free Enterprise Award (2021), the EY Master Entrepreneur of the Year Award (2019), and the Texas Christian Leader of the Year Award (2016). In Fall 2024, Hunt will receive the H. Neil Mallon Award for civic leadership from the World Affairs Council of Dallas/Fort Worth.

A Dallas native, Hunt graduated first in his class at Southern Methodist University in 1987, where he was a four-year letterman and captain of the Mustangs nationally ranked soccer team. Hunt has served as a member of the SMU Board of Trustees since 2008, and he was the recipient of SMU’s Distinguished Alumni Award in 2020. Hunt graduated from the St. Mark’s School of Texas in 1983 and served as president of the St. Mark’s Board of Trustees from 2018-2020. 

Hunt and his wife Tavia reside in Dallas with their three children: Gracie, Knobel, and Ava.
