Smith-Schuster's catch on third-and-7 gave the Chiefs 13 yards and a touchdown and a 22-14 lead.

Harrison Butker's attempt to score one point after another hit a post and was of no use, leaving the Falcons with only a one-point lead.

Smith-Schuster was the Chiefs' top wide receiver in receptions in 2022, but left the team after that season as a free agent for the New England Patriots. He returned to the Chiefs this year after being released by the New England Patriots in training camp.
