He then threw a perfect pass across his body to Hill, who caught it in stride and raced to the end zone. The play gave the Chiefs a 14-10 lead in the second quarter, and they went on to win 28-24.
- Jalen Ramsey intercepts Lamar Jackson and returns it for a touchdown. The Los Angeles Rams cornerback is one of the best in the game, and he showed his skills on this play.

The play cut the Chiefs’ lead to 28-17 in the fourth quarter, but the Chargers could not complete the comeback.
