Chiefs secure eighth straight overtime win against Colts
Kansas City defeated Indianapolis in overtime, with Patrick Mahomes throwing for 382 yards and three touchdowns, while several Chiefs players contributed key plays.
Kansas City rallied in overtime to beat Indianapolis 31-24, extending its streak of overtime victories to eight. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 28 passes for 382 yards and three touchdowns without a turnover, and added a crucial run in the extra period that helped set up the winning field goal.
Running back Kenneth Walker III recorded 115 total yards and was repeatedly used on third-down situations, while tight end Travis Kelce caught nine passes for 101 yards and a touchdown, becoming the league’s all-time leader in yards after catch.
Defensive contributions included cornerback Nohl Williams, who forced a near-game-ending fumble that was ruled a down-by-contact, and cornerback Kristian Fulton, who intercepted a pass despite being flagged for pass interference.
The Colts relied on running back Jonathan Taylor and quick passes from quarterback Daniel Jones to counter the Chiefs’ pass rush, but were unable to capitalize on several opportunities in the final minutes. Wide receiver Tyquan Thornton made a key 45-yard reception in overtime, and the team’s defense limited Kansas City’s scoring until the final drive.
Chiefs defensive back L’Jarius Sneed gave up several catches early and was beaten on the decisive overtime play, while backup tight end Noah Gray and return specialist Nikko Remigio saw limited impact.
