Chiefs will stick with Harrison Butker as their kicker

Harrison Butker keeps missing field goals, but the Chiefs are not ready to make a change at kicker. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said at a Wednesday press conference that the team will stick with Butker for this Sunday’s game in Atlanta. Butker missed a 56-yard field goal against the Jets last Sunday and then missed again from 51 yards after the Jets were flagged for being offside on the initial kick. He’s missed field goals in each of the last three games and is 12-of-19 on field goals over the entire season. Butker’s shaky performance led the Chiefs to sign Justin Tucker to the practice squad late last month, but neither his presence nor Butker’s continued struggles has prompted Reid to make a change.
