Chiefs defeat Giants to earn first win of season: Live reaction and updates
Kansas City’s two second-half touchdowns propelled the Chiefs to their first victory of the 2025 regular season

Chiefs victorious over Giants on ‘Sunday Night Football’
The Kansas City Chiefs used a second-half charge to defeat the New York Giants 22-9 on “Sunday Night Football,” earning them their first win of the 2025 season. After not scoring a touchdown in the first half, the Chiefs scored two in the second, one by Tyquan Thornton and the other by Kareem Hunt.

Patrick Mahomes went 22-of-37 passing for 224 yards and one touchdown in the winning effort. It was another struggling performance for Giants quarterback Russell Wilson, who went 18-of-32 passing for 160 yards, zero touchdowns and two interceptions.

With Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy still out, the Chiefs’ biggest question heading into the week remained: Who was best equipped to help out Patrick Mahomes as an offensive threat?

The Chiefs might’ve gotten their answer after the speedy Tyquan Thornton saved the team late.

Leading by seven, K.C. faced a third-and-10 late that presented a tricky situation, given Harrison Butker’s struggles this season.

Mahomes — with help — bailed the Chiefs out of that situation by throwing across his body to his new top target.

Somehow, Thornton was able to come down with a 33-yard contested reception just in front of the end zone. NFL Next Gen Stats, in fact, said the pass was brought in despite a 15.7-percent completion probability.

And though the Chiefs couldn’t have known it at the time, their ability to woo Thornton, a 2022 New England Patriots second-round pick, to the team’s practice squad late last year ended up being one of the team’s top personnel moves for the ensuing season.
