As the fifth week of the NFL season concludes, so does the Kansas City Chiefs bye week.

Here's what some of your favorite Chiefs were up to during their week off:

A man of many talents, offensive lineman Laurent Duvernay-Tardif added another bullet point to his ever-expanding résumé in the form of Cirque du Soleil.

Thanks @Cirque for giving me the chance to be a cirque member for one day! See you in Montreal & Kansas City 💪🏼#OVOCirque #cirquedusoleil pic.twitter.com/e5c6aP6gqL

Offensive lineman Mitchell Schwartz and fiancé visited our neighbors up north in Canada…

We're both "falling" for Canada...I'll let myself out 🍁🍂

...while quarterback Tyler Bray and his wife escaped to NYC for the bye.

Great bye week trip with @jennifer_bray9 in New York.

Maybe a future in television? Linebacker Derrick Johnson also visited New York, in studio with former teammate Tony Gonzales and the rest of the NFL on CBS team.

Great trip to NYC for @NFLonCBS @CBSSportsNet! Thanks for having me, @JBsportscaster, @TonyGonzalez, Bill Cowher, @therealbartscott, Boomer Esiason, @Adam.Schein, Amy Trask, Brandon Tierney, and @LFletcher59! #TOPSomCBS #TheNFLToday

Meanwhile, wide receiver Albert Wilson "hung loose" with some yoga in Maui.

Travis Kelce not only celebrated his 27th birthday over the bye. He also reflected on his football journey in his debut article for the Players' Tribune, titled "What You Don't Know About: Being A Tight End."

"If your mind isn’t right, your body doesn’t stand a damn chance.”

The definition of "no days off," linebacker Tamba Hali practiced his footwork with local Kansas City high school students.

Even K.C. Wolf got some bye week action, jersey swapping with Burnie of the Miami Heat during their preseason matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Sprint Center.
