Andy Reid confirms Harrison Butker will remain Chiefs kicker for Week 10
Summary

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid announced on November 11 that kicker Harrison Butker will maintain his starting position for at least Week 10. Butker has faced criticism for his performance, having missed a field goal in Week 9, which dropped his accuracy to 63.2% for the season. Despite calls for a change, Reid emphasized a continued commitment to Butker, who has struggled throughout the year, only successfully kicking field goals in two games. The Chiefs are without immediate alternatives, though it remains to be seen how long this trust in Butker will last if his performance does not improve.
