After a prayer and a prediction, Leo Chenal rescues Chiefs with walk-off blocked field goal

New York Times  

— Chiefs teammates Leo Chenal and Travis Kelce made eye contact in the locker room after Sunday’s game. GO DEEPER 'We were right there': Broncos heartbroken by blocked field goal loss to Chiefs Once everyone was in the locker room, coach Andy Reid still wasn’t sure who blocked the kick during his postgame speech: “Whoever it was … ” Reid was interrupted by many players who shouted one name: “Leo!” Reid, with perfect comedic timing, responded by looking directly at Chenal. It’s Leo’s locker room today 😤 pic.twitter.com/1xNEzFIOFL — Kansas City Chiefs November 10, 2024 Chenal was on the field for the game’s penultimate play. I was literally praying, like, ‘Please, Jesus, we need something here.’ I do feel like my prayer was answered.” GO DEEPER Inside the rise of Leo Chenal, the Chiefs’ most underrated defensive player: ‘The guy can play whatever’ NFL kickers have a 92 percent success rate on 35-yard field goals over the last five seasons. Good things happen when you have a bunch of guys getting off at the same time.” Working off Justin Reid’s presence, special teams coordinator Dave Toub called for the middle of the block unit — Chenal, Karlaftis, Pennel and defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton — to win the line of scrimmage with power to give one of his players a chance to leap into Lutz’s kicking path.
