Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid reached into his bag of tricks near the goal line during Sunday's victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw a one-yard touchdown pass to offensive tackle Wanya Morris midway through the third quarter. The Chiefs were stuffed on the one-yard line earlier in the game after several rushing attempts. As we all well know by now, Reid will not hesitate to find creative ways to put points up on the board.
Reid has a long history of dialing up plays for his big linemen, and it is noteworthy that linebacker Leo Chenal was also in on the touchdown play to Morris. As you can expect, Morris was elated over his TD grab while talking to KCTV5' Marleah Campbell after the game.
Morris did a nice job of staying focused while the ball was in the air and not getting too antsy, possibly resulting in a drop. As Marleah noted, Morris caught a touchdown pass during his senior year of high school. After the catch, Morris wasn't shy about showing off his dance moves, which he spoke to KSHB41 reporter Aaron Ladd about.
Morris' TD catch will be one of the highlights of the Chiefs' 2024 season, and a moment that Morris will never forget. It's not out of the question that he gets dialed up again for a TD down the line. That's not the only opportunity that Morris could get this year, as he relieved rookie Kingsley Suamataia at left tackle during the fourth quarter after Suamataia struggled to hold up against Cincinnati's pass rush.
Regardless of whether Morris takes over as the Chiefs' starting left tackle, he's a vital part of the offensive line. He can play both tackle positions as well as guard in a pinch. Morris played admirably during his four starts at left tackle last year and clearly has the trust of Kansas City's coaching staff.
