Mecole Hardman may have cost the Kansas City Chiefs their season after fumbling the ball through the end zone against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night.
In a game that had gone back and forth through the first three quarters, Hardman’s dumbfounding mistake gave the Bills possession at their own 25-yard line with a chance to take the lead late in the game.
