Chiefs’ Andy Reid explains why he chose to punt in fourth quarter against Packers

The Kansas City Chiefs and backup quarterback Matt Moore faced third-and-3 at their own 40-yard line on Sunday Night Football against the Green Bay Packers, trailing 31-24 with less than five minutes and 20 seconds remaining in the game.

Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce came across the middle past the first-down marker, and Moore fired a pass. But Kelce was well defended by cornerback Chandon Sullivan, and though Kelce appeared to get his hands on the football, he could not come up with it.

The ball dropped to the ground.
