Harrison Butker went from zero to hero in the Kansas City Chiefs locker room Sunday when he broke hearts across Cincinnati after a week of more political controversy.
The Chiefs’ quest for a historic threepeat remained alive and well Sunday night as they dug deep to prove once again why they are the two-time reigning champions.
Kansas City clinched a 26-25 win in the dying seconds of their Week 2 matchup against the Bengals thanks to Butker.
The kicker clinched the win for Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and co. with a last-gasp field goal to seal a one-point lead at Arrowhead.
He converted a 51-yard field goal as time expired to lift the Chiefs past the visiting Cincinnati Bengals to go 2-0 for the season.

Mahomes completed 18 of 25 passes for just 151 yards. He tossed two touchdowns, including a 44-yarder to Rashee Rice, but added two interceptions.
With his team down two, Mahomes received one final chance after rookie safety Daijahn Anthony was called for pass interference with 38 seconds remaining as the Chiefs faced fourth-and-16 from their own 35.
Joe Burrow was 23-of-36 for 258 yards and a pair of touchdown passes to Andrei Iosivas.
The game was another installment of one of the NFL’s most riveting rivalries of the last four years. Burrow is 3-2 lifetime against Mahomes.
Butker’s heroics came after he almost threatened the peace within the Chiefs camp earlier this week.
The kicker risked the wrath of Kelce and Swift’s fans when he cozied up to conservative commentators, Megyn Kelly and Tucker Carlson.

The 29-year-old, who sparked liberal outrage for his personal religious and political beliefs earlier this year, attended Carlson’s live show, featuring special guest Kelly, at the city’s T-Mobile Center.
Following the show, which was part of Carlson’s first-ever national arena tour, the Super Bowl winner went backstage to meet the media personalities. They even commemorated the moment with a photo of the conservative trio which was shared to the host’s Instagram and reposted to the NFL player’s story.
The former Fox News presenter issued a brutal takedown of Swift after the popstar, publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris after her debate with Donald Trump on Tuesday night.
Swift’s endorsement of Harris hasn’t only sparked speculation of a rift with Butker but also Brittany Mahomes – the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick.
The songstress and pregnant mother-of-two were once again sat in separate suites at Arrowhead Stadium for a second straight week.

Brittany Mahomes showed off her view at Arrowhead – without any sight of Taylor Swift – as she posed with her and Patrick’s children
Swift and Brittany have developed a close bond through their respective relationships with Chiefs stars Kelce and Mahomes, but have publicly supported different presidential candidates of late.
Brittany came under fire last month when she was spotted liking a post from former President Trump.
And while the friends were seen back together at last weekend’s US Open , they sat apart for the second consecutive week in Kansas City as Swift was seen without Mahomes in her suite.
Swift, who has been dating tight end Kelce since last year, arrived to the game earlier in the day with her mother Andrea, her brother Austin, and singer Danielle Haim.
