The Kansas City Chiefs booked their tickets to the AFC championship for the seventh consecutive season after breezing past the Houston Texans 23–14 in Saturday's divisional round showdown. During the closing moments of the game, it seems someone from the Chiefs organization started celebrating a bit prematurely.
Kansas City possessed the ball with under a minute left in the game. Although the contest was not quite over, confetti was launched onto the field before a third-down snap. Shortly after, the Chiefs were forced to attempt a punt and ended up committing a safety, giving the ball back to the Texans for a final drive and surrendering two points. All the while, confetti was littered across the field.
