Special teams wasn’t exactly a bright spot for the Kansas City Chiefs this season. Fans basically saw both extremes of the spectrum during the season. Some games Dave Toub’s men would contribute significantly to a win, while other games they’d be a big part of why the Chiefs would lose. During Super Bowl LIV the coverage unit and specifically WR Byron Pringle was a big reason that Kansas City was able to mount a comeback and hold that lead.

Brian Baldinger gives a really good break down of it up above. Pringle would have made a much greater impact had he recovered the muffed punt, but the fact that he even had a chance at it was extremely impressive. For a player that is likely in line for a bigger role in 2020, it’s good to see him stepping up and making plays like this on the biggest stage.
