Carson Steele missed his sister's wedding on Sunday. He had a good excuse.
The Chiefs rookie made his debut as a starting NFL running back in Kansas City's 22-17 win over the Atlanta Falcons.
As Steele took a handoff from Patrick Mahomes on Kansas City's opening drive, friends and family gathered in Greenwood, Indiana, to celebrate his sister Kesslar's marriage. It appears that there are no hard feelings over his absence.
NBC shared video from the wedding reception, which included Steele's debut as an integral part of party. Revelers gathered around a big screen to watch Steele's first carry.
