Special teams turnover sets up Chiefs for first lead of Super Bowl 58

The  Kansas City Chiefs caught a huge break in the third quarter of Super Bowl 58.

A Tommy Townsend punt grazed the back of the foot of San Francisco’s Darrell Luter Jr. as he was getting ready to block for a return.

Ray-Ray McLeod saw it and tried to corral the football but it was recovered by Jaylen Watson.

The next play Patrick Mahomes went for a touchdown and found Marquez Valdez-Scantling in the end zone.

After Harrison Butker’s PAT, the Chiefs led 13-10 late in the third quarter.

KC had scored 13 points in a row, including a Super Bowl record 57-yard field goal by Butker.
