The Kansas City Chiefs currently trail the Philadelphia Eagles in a Bowl LIX rematch at Arrowhead Stadium.
Despite the Chiefs’ offensive struggles, Kansas City’s defense has shown serious signs of improvement from last week’s loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Brazil.

The Chiefs have largely struggled to get pass-rushers into Philadelphia’s backfield, but rookie defensive lineman Omarr Norman-Lott was able to secure his first career sack with an exceptionally hard hit on Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Take a look at this video of Norman-Lott’s outstanding sack, which was posted to Twitter by the Chiefs’ official account during Sunday’s game:
Norman-Lott’s sack helped keep Kansas City within striking distance of the Eagles, and may prove to have been a momentum-shifting play in the game.
If the Chiefs’ defensive line can continue to pressure Hurts and stall Philadelphia’s offense in the second half, Kansas City may be able to earn its first regular-season win against the reigning Super Bowl champions.
