Chiefs defense gets strip-and-score vs. former teammate Tyreek Hill

FRANKFURT, Germany — The Kansas City Chiefs went up 21-0 late in the first half on a wild play on defense. Cornerback Trent McDuffie forced former teammate Tyreek Hill to fumble after a short catch. Safety Mike Edwards recovered and then lateraled to safety Bryan Cook, who took the ball down the sideline 59 yards for a touchdown.

Meanwhile, on the Chiefs’ first drive, they accomplished what they didn’t in all of last week’s game. They scored a touchdown.

In this case, it came from rookie wide receiver Rashee Rice, who took a screen pass 11 yards for the touchdown that gave the Chiefs a 7-0 lead.

The Chiefs appeared to score on the previous play, but Patrick Mahomes‘ pass to Justin Watson, initially called a touchdown, was overturned after the video review.

It was Mahomes’ first opening-drive passing touchdown of the season.
