The Kansas City Chiefs officially have one of the best postseason kickers of all time in Harrison Butker. We have all known that, but when you pass up one of the greatest players ever, if not the greatest, it's saying something.

Butker has been one of the most consistent kickers over the last five or so years. He means a ton to the city and franchise, especially when you think about the kicking situation the Chiefs have had before, like Lin Elliot.

Now, they have a guy who holds several records for the Chiefs in terms of kicking, and on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round, he made even more history. Here is what the Chiefs PR team tweeted out about Butker after a big FG to start the game:

With that FG, K Harrison Butker has 134 career postseason points, moving past PFHOF WR Jerry Rice (132) for the 6th-most postseason points in NFL history.

The Chiefs not only have weapons like Travis Kelce, Rashee Rice, Isiah Pacheco, and the best player in the world in Patrick Mahomes, but they also have a weapon in Harrison Butker, a pretty much automatic guy.

Butker has already made two field goals for the Chiefs before halftime. Now, he trails just Adam Vinatieri (238), Stephen Gostkowski (212), David Akers (175), Mason Crosby (163), and Gary Anderson (153) all-time in postseason points scored. Butker is a Kansas City legend.
