Harrison Butker, a kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, missed Monday’s practice due to an ankle injury. The 27-year-old injured his ankle on Sunday’s opening kickoff. The fact that he participated in the game on Sunday suggests that he will be fine moving forward.

This was purely an incredibly individual effort from Saquon Barkley. A truly special play. #Giants pic.twitter.com/huIDwJyhWu— Dan Schneier (@DanSchneierNFL) September 12, 2022
