DeVonta Smith made the big catch where Marquez Valdes-Scantling did not.

The Kansas City Chiefs didn't trail in Monday's Super Bowl rematch until 6:20 remaining in the fourth quarter. A 41-yard Smith catch from Jalen Hurts set up a Hurts sneak to give the Philadelphia Eagles their first lead of the game at 21-17.

The Chiefs had a chance to answer, but Valdes-Scantling dropped a would-be go-ahead touchdown on a deep ball from Patrick Mahomes. The Eagles took over on downs and ran out the clock for a 21-17 win.
