Budding Chiefs LB credited with game-winning FG block vs. Broncos

The Kansas City Chiefs completed yet another miraculous win on Sunday after blocking what would have been a game-winning field goal against the Denver Broncos as time expired in the fourth quarter.

The Chiefs’ offense struggled for most of the game, but Kansas City’s defense stepped up to make key plays that kept the score close.

With their undefeated season in the balance, Chiefs linebacker Leo Chenal managed to get his hand on the ball when Broncos kicker Will Lutz attempted the last-second field goal in the fourth quarter.

Though it was unclear which player had tipped Lutz’s kick, Chenal was officially credited with the blocked field goal and earned a shoutout from the defending Super Bowl champions on Twitter.

 

Chenal has been a key part of Kansas City’s defense and special teams unit since joining the Chiefs as a third-round pick in the 2022 NFL draft.

Stay tuned to see if Chenal can make another game-changing play against the Buffalo Bills in Week 11.
