Chiefs defense smothers Titans after getting Butker field goal in OT
Chiefs #Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs’ defense was as responsible for Sunday’s 20-17 overtime victory over the Tennessee Titans as Patrick Mahomes and the offense.
After Harrison Butker kicked a field goal in the extra period, the Chiefs’ defense swarmed rookie quarterback Malik Willis.
He was sacked twice and threw an incompletion on fourth-and-forever as the Chiefs closed out the victory.
The Titans had one first down in the second half and overtime and Willis was 5-of-16 for 80 yards in his second start.

Noah Gray helped out his QB on what turned out to be the drive that delivered the game-winning field goal.
Mahomes scrambled and threw the pass to the backup tight end who made a juggling catch.
MAHOMES HOW?!??!
