Monster kicks against the Denver Broncos are a common occurrence in the mile-high air of central Colorado, but Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker managed to hit his 60-yard bomb in Week 6 at Arrowhead Stadium on a windy night in primetime.
This was the second-longest field goal of Butker’s career and occurred as time expired in the second quarter of Kansas City’s tilt against Denver on Thursday night. The veteran kicker put more than enough mustard on the ball to get it through the uprights with plenty of room to spare.

Kicks like this are routine for the two-time Super Bowl champion, but they never cease to impress. Butker has scored seven of Kansas City’s 14 points heading into halftime, and if the result of the first two quarters is any indication, he should get more work in later in the game.
This field goal was a thing of beauty and isn’t likely to be topped until the Chiefs visit Denver in Week 8.
