The Kansas City Chiefs have a two-point advantage in their Super Bowl LVIII rematch against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7.
After a hot start for both teams’ defenses Kansas City needed a game-changing play to keep San Francisco from taking a lead in the second half.
When quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw his second interception of the game in the third quarter, rookie defensive back Chris Roland-Wallace was ready to answer the call to keep Kansas City ahead.
49ers quarterback Brock Purdy drove San Francisco downfield after the Chiefs’ turnover, but threw an interception to Roland-Wallace that gave Kansas City’s offense to extend its lead.
Take a look at this video of Roland-Wallace’s game-altering interception, which was posted to Twitter by the Chiefs’ official account:

If Kansas City’s defense can continue to pressure Purdy and force bad passes, the Chiefs may be able to escape Levi’s Stadium with its undefeated record intact heading into Week 8.
