Anthony Fasano kept the Chiefs drive (and hopes) alive with an amazing reception on a third down play. Here’s the VINE from Carrington Harrison:

Kansas City would go on to score a touchdown on the drive to get the Chiefs within four points, 21-17, against the Denver Broncos in Denver. Kansas City was a 14 point underdog entering the game and are missing seven starters between the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, including Jamaal Charles and Eric Berry.
In addition to Charles and Berry, the Chiefs are missing Mike DeVito, Derrick Johnson, Jeff Allen, Donald Stephenson, and Joe Mays. Three of those players are out for the entire season. Needless to say the Chiefs are incredibly beat up, are on the road, and facing the best team in the AFC. Not a challenge easily handled.
By no means has this be a perfect or great game from the Chiefs, but the effort has certainly been there. And that effort is in many ways personified by this catch by Fasano. Good to see the Chiefs haven’t quit.
