Chiefs’ Jody Fortson snagged a dart from Patrick Mahomes for first career TD
Chiefs tight end Jody Fortson will keep this football for the rest of his life.
Fortson caught a 2-yard pass from quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the third quarter of Sunday’s game against the Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium
This was no soft toss from Mahomes, either.
Mahomes threw a dart and Fortson caught the back of the ball for the first Chiefs touchdown of the game.
This was a nice grab:
That touchdown catch capped a 12-play, 70-yard drive for the Chiefs. It was the opening drive of the second half.
Fortson was converted to tight end after playing wide receiver at Division II Valdosta State.
