The Kansas City Chiefs barely survived by the skin of their teeth on Sunday Night Football, pulling out a 22-17 win over the Atlanta Falcons. There was plenty of controversy with a critical pass interference call that was missed late in the fourth quarter. But once again, Patrick Mahomes and company pulled it out, after he took a knee in the final seconds to run out the clock.
When Mahomes went to the ground to slide in the final seconds, it was a very awkward slide because his foot got stuck in the ground as he was trying to go down. The Chiefs star quarterback appeared to injure himself a little bit. Here’s the video of the play below.
Following the game, Mahomes spoke with NBC’s Melissa Stark on the field. “Yeah, the turf got me, man. I was trying to just take a knee and my foot got stuck. But I’m all good. I’m just glad we got a win,” Mahomes explained.
