Derek Carr threw a touchdown pass in his Saints preseason debut and Blake Grupe kicked the winning field goal against the Chiefs.
Chiefs star QB Patrick Mahomes started but took just five snaps before Kansas City’s first drive ended with a failed fourth-and-1 play on a direct snap to reserve tight end Blake Bell.
Aftrer twice rolling away from pressure on first-down completions to tight end Juwan Johnson and running back Alvin Kamara, Carr capped the 12-play, 80-yard drive with a 4-yard pass to Keith Kirkwood as the receiver crossed the back of the end zone. “You can’t finish with a mistake and that’s a terrible way to end the thing," Reid said."It looks like the Saints have a good football team. We’ve got to make sure we get our stuff taken care of.”
Buechele put the Chiefs in front 21-17 when he escaped two near sacks, stepped forward and found Kekoa Crawford in the middle of the end zone.
