Kansas City Chiefs rewarded for their patience with former Vikings' first-round pick Mike Hughes

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Cornerback Mike Hughes scored his first NFL touchdown during his first NFL game back in 2018 for the Minnesota Vikings. Even after moving this season to the Kansas City Chiefs and playing mostly a backup role, he never lost hope he would get at least one more.

"Eventually I knew I was going to get in there [again]," Hughes said. "There's no better way than getting a fumble recovery.

"It's always good to get a fast start like that. I think that was huge for our success today.
