The Chiefs got into position to kick this game-winning field goal after a classic Patrick Mahomes to Travis Kelce connection. Mahomes scrambled and evaded pressure long enough to find his tight end for the first down.

Earlier in the game, Kelce made some impressive NFL history.

Kelce became the fastest tight end in NFL history to reach the 12,000-yard receiving mark, reaching the milestone in 172 games.

The 35-year-old tight end passed the previous mark set by Chiefs legend Tony Gonzalez, who accomplished the feat in 210 games.
