Who took over for Michael Hoecht yesterday on the Chiefs' final drive? Javon Solomon.

Watch this move he puts on Trey Smith to force an incomplete pass and 3rd and long (Max INT). He has big shoes to fill, but I love what I saw out of the 2024 5th-rounder yesterday in crunch time.
November 3, 2025 at 3:07 PM
Michael Hoecht's season is over before it really even began in Buffalo. He waved off the cart because he wanted to watch the end of the Bills' win over KC. Here's more.
