The Chiefs ran a play Sunday called “the Leatherneck” where Khalen Saunders lined up as a running back and ran toward the end zone for a pass. Unfortunately, Mahomes was under pressure and had to throw it away.

I saw that. Wondered if they'd seen the video from Western where he'd caught a TD pass...........

Khalen Saunders recorded the first sack of the Super Bowl tonight (for either team), and the first of only two sacks in the game.

Looks like Saunders is headed south. Was a free agent and just got signed to a 3-year deal with the Saints.

Article talking about Khalen and the Saints: https://www.si.com/nfl/saints/training- ... op-the-run

Slightly incorrect on the coach situation though. Myers’s wasn’t Khalen’s HC when he was here.
