The Kansas City Chiefs went to an unusual play call in the first quarter of Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots, but the play worked and gave the Chiefs an early lead.
The trick play is called "Heisman," per NBC Sports' Peter King, and the origin of the play dates back approximately 80 years. According to King, the play was first used in the forties when Penn ran it against Columbia. Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy presented the play to Andy Reid, and the head coach liked it.
In the "Heisman" play, Jerick McKinnon lined up behind the center with Patrick Mahomes to his left.
