Harrison Butker’s last-minute field goal completed a furious second-half rally by the Kansas City Chiefs, who edged past the Philadelphia Eagles, 38-35, for the Super Bowl 2023 win.
GLENDALE, Ariz. – Patrick Mahomes took another step toward immortality on Sunday night, this one with a limp.
Playing on an ankle injury he suffered three weeks ago in the divisional round of the playoffs, Mahomes reinjured the ankle just before halftime when Eagles linebacker T.J. Edwards tackled him and his ankle rolled. Mahomes limped off the field but did not miss a snap or a beat. Hurts showed his arm on the first play of the second quarter when he threw a 45-yard touchdown strike to A.J. Brown, who made a nice adjustment on the ball to catch it while cornerback Trent McDuffie seemed to lose the ball.
The game then looked like it was taking a drastic turn with 1:33 remaining when Mahomes scrambled and was tackled by Edwards. As he was going down, Mahomes’ right ankle turned, the same ankle he injured three weeks ago in a playoff win over the Jaguars. Mahomes got up limping badly and was in clear pain on the sideline.
Elliott extended the lead to 27-21 with just under two minutes left in the third quarter by hitting a 33-yard field goal.
