One of the craziest stories about the Kansas City Chiefs this season is the kicker situation but since it’s “just a kicker” it doesn’t get much play outside of Kansas City.
The story is this: the Chiefs cut their kicker for the last three-plus years and signed off the Panthers practice squad a kicker named Harrison Butker who is now three field goals away from the franchise record of 22 consecutive field goals made.
It’s just so bizarre to me that the Chiefs were so quick to cut Santos, who has been their kicker since 2014 and been pretty reliable.
