Kadarius Toney Comes Through in a Big Way as Part of Record-Setting Super Bowl

Wide receiver Kadarius Toney left his mark on the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory over the Philadelphia Eagles this past Sunday, making two spectacular plays that impacted the game while also making some Super Bowl history.

First, Toney was on the receiving end of the Chiefs’ go-ahead touchdown early in the fourth quarter. The two-year veteran, who Kansas City acquired from New York mid-season, began to run a “jet action” route across the line of scrimmage before stopping in his tracks, reversing field and running toward the opposite flat. The Eagles’ defense wasn’t able to recover following Toney’s change in direction, and the result was a wide-open, 5-yard touchdown.

“When I saw the ball in the air coming toward me, I kind of knew it was over with,” Toney said. “It means everything, but I couldn’t have done it without Andy Reid and the guys.”
