Uncertainty looms over Chiefs’ kicking situation again this week

Despite rostering the second most accurate kicker in NFL history, the Kansas City Chiefs' kicking situation has been marred with uncertainty in 2022.

Harrison Butker, who has made over 90% of his field goal attempts since entering the league in 2017, hasn't played since spraining his left ankle in the first game of the season against the Arizona Cardinals. After releasing fill-in kicker Matt Ammendola after two games with the team, the Chiefs signed former Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Matthew Wright to the practice squad on Tuesday.

Butker was able to return to practice on Wednesday, but according to special teams coordinator Dave Toub, he was held out on Thursday because of soreness.
