Philadelphia Eagles kicker explains infamous "nightmare" punt in Super Bowl LVIl

Philadelphia Eagles punter Arryn Siposs attempted to ‘kick a drop punt’ in the play which led to a major momentum swing in favour of the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII.

In Arizona, the Chiefs secured a dramatic 38-35 win over the Eagles in an all-time classic. Kansas City star quarterback Patrick Mahomes overcame injury to throw for 182 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Chiefs to a sensational win, which was secured by a late field goal from kicker Harrison Butker with just eight seconds remaining.

It is the second Lombardi Trophy in four years for the franchise, who are definitely enjoying the Mahomes-Andy Reid era. It was a bitter moment for the Eagles though, who had reached their first Super Bowl since February 2018 when they beat the New England Patriots.
