1. who is our new kicker

2. I guess the offense will have to pick it up and quit relying on Harrison.

3. What is going on .

4. 6

5. I can see Justin Reid kicking if need be. All these injuries and they keep winning. Doesn't matter if it's by 1 point or 30 points. A win is a win. The Chiefs have been using the reg season as a glorified practice to find out what works, what doesn't, and what else they want to try. But that's my opinion.

6. I dont know God want us to win or lose.

7. IR=4 weeks

8. ↖️ Bills fan— i know yall really been hit by the injury bug this year, but I think this the best time for this to happen to yall. Bills are going to be without several key starters; hate to say it, but yall roll us this week & then the next few teams yall have, yall could handle w/ ME kickin back there. Y’all bout to be getting healthy at the perfect time

9. I hope Brett Veche doesn't have a nervous breakdown. Poor guy.

10. Chief's may have to run more forth down plays. Qb sneak

11. Looks like it's time to score touchdowns

12. Each season I pick and follow a different team closely as a pastime. KC got the nod this year for obvious reasons, but I sure wasn’t expecting it to be this crazy!
    If you didn’t know the standings and someone showed you their stat line, in a thousand years of Tuesdays could you convince them that it’s a 9-0 team line….yet here we are and I am here for it. Definitely didn’t have this one on my bingo card though. Not a horrible surgery, I had my left knee done in the 80’s and it wasn’t a bad recovery. I’m sure the procedure much better now. HB will be fine, he’s a pro with the best care possible.
    I have zero opinion on what any of this means, this season is too bizarre for words. At this point I’m willing to believe that maybe Veach found the Mahomes of kickers, who knows at this point.
    As always Cole, a great piece.

13. who cares we are not going to win 17 games anyway you dont need Butker against trash teams like LV or Carolina.

14. This is my 3rd comment on this news…. Just saw Philly kicker missed 2 FGs that Butker would have made easily 😭😭😭😭

15. No kicking Leg

16. I could see this being a blessing for this week… More aggressive play-calling on that side of the field

17. Why are you stressing about a fill in. This late in the week who are you getting? It’s not like elite kickers are sitting in a box waiting to be signed. He will do what he will do. If he sucks we will find someone next week. Stuff happens, hope Butker gets healthy quickly but nothing changes it’s just another reason for the offense to step up.

18. The threepeat seems less likely than ever at this point! 😿
    SMH! 😑

19. I’ve never heard of this guy (I’m sure a lot of people have no clue who he is). Now everyone will know his name. I’d pick the Chiefs too. Even if just for 4 games

20. I would say that we better run the score up on the Bills.

21. Can't believe God didn't fix it for him.

22. Was Tonya Harding in Kansas City, MO recently? Did the Bill's put out a hit on Butker's knee?

23. BUTKER WILL MAKE A FULL RECOVERY , KEEP THE FAITH , LET'S HOPE THE BACKUP KICKER IS BASICALLY JUST AS GOOD

24. i feel bad now hes the team mvp so we prolly gonna lose

25. They'll need even more help from the Refs!

26. Calm down everyone. This is only bad if you were counting on an undefeated season. Get ready to lose 3-4 games. Playoffs is what is important. Keep your eye on the prize.
    Maybe we will see a new, aggressive Reid, going for 6 instead of 3….. I think the team can step up.

27. You mean… he worked his whole life for something and yet was relegated to just staying at home? Hmmm

28. Thanks, Cole! You are always on it to bring us breaking news! I saw this notice from Palasero, then immediately looked, and you already had this video.

29. Thank you for the update, Cole. Horrible news. At least he'll be back by postseason. Offense is really going to have to step up to overcome this setback.

30. Hope he has a good recovery. Dude has won us a lot of games. Great man.

31. So long as he is ready for playoffs I'm not worried one bit. I just REALLY hope they treat Sunday like a playoff game. Beat BUF and we're on real cruise control. That would give us a 4 game lead over everyone but PIT and they've got all 6 division games left…they gonna lose a couple most likely.

32. In Veach we trust , the man is a genius he will have someone in mind and he has pulled a master stroke every time we have needed it , hopefully we will be good on Sunday

33. Perhaps this is all they could get on short notice. Could get another kicker after Bills game.

34. Kickers are an unusual breed. The Denver player's kick was blocked and Butker felt his pain.

35. This should be used to motivate the offense to score 7s on the drives and not put so much pressure on the kicker. Sucks but it is the reality not let's lock in and GO CHIEFS!!!!!

36. I'm putting good vibes out into the universe for Butker. I hope he heals quickly, easily and fully.

37. They will bring in more guys for tryouts during the week didn’t have time to for this game

38. I feel like we should just use Justin Reid cuz he's been pretty good when butker was injured last time

39. 10😬😲🥺😫😫😫😫😩

40. Stay with the Jets or play for Chiefs?
    Is that even a question???
    Boy is going to get a SB ring as a rookie. I’m taking that deal 100 times out of 100 for sure.

41. F it sign Adam Botkin

42. For some reason, I get the impression that Mahomes has just become as of today. Laser focused on scoring touchdowns, beginning with the opening drive. He’s not gonna leave the chance, let’s just get three every time. And I will say it it’s about time.

43. Can’t Justin Reid kick?

44. CONCERNED!

45. Lord, please watch over the medical staff and Harrison as he goes thru this procedure, we need him for the 3-peat! Can I get an AMEN?!

46. Oh Harrison, how must i start? is it your stunning brown eyes? Is it your elite ball kicking? From the way you you play on the field to the way you bomb 65 yarders. Oh my glorious butker get better and please be the same!

47. Butker was taken off another teams practice squad too, he was on the Panthers practice squad when KC snagged him

48. If this were NBA free throws, we're basically going from Kobe Bryant to Shaquille O'Neal 😂

49. Chiefs sacrifice another player. The dark magic must stay strong
