While unable to find an open receiver, Patrick Mahomes ran to his right and inexplicably took a sack from Alex Singleton instead of throwing the ball away. The sack took what would have been a 46-yard field goal and made it a 54-yard field goal for Harrison Butler, which he missed.

Mahomes' crucial fourth-quarter sack cost Chiefs potential game-winning FG attempt.

With 2:40 remaining in the fourth quarter against Denver, Mahomes was unable to find an open receiver and inexplicably took a sack from Alex Singleton instead of throwing the ball away. The sack converted what would have been a 46-yard field goal attempt into a 54-yard miss, allowing the Broncos to score a go-ahead touchdown. The source suggests that had Mahomes not taken the sack, Kansas City might have kicked a game-winner instead of having to go for a touchdown.
