Chiefs fall to Broncos as penalty ends late comeback effort

The Kansas City Chiefs lost to the Denver Broncos 28-24 on November 1, 2026, after failing to secure a game-winning touchdown in the final seconds. Although the Chiefs initially led by 11 points in the fourth quarter, a false start penalty on right tackle Jaylon Moore halted their momentum. Head coach Andy Reid questioned the legitimacy of the penalty, noting he did not see a false start, which followed a touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to Rashee Rice that was ultimately nullified. The penalty resulted in Mahomes being sacked on the subsequent play, sealing their second consecutive loss.
