Kicking balls weren't properly inflated for Chiefs vs Patriots

https://www.masslive.com/patriots/20...source=twitter

Call it Deflategate, Part II.

Following their loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Patriots special teamers were visibly upset in the locker room on Sunday due to an error by the officiating staff. According to multiple sources, the footballs that are meant for each team’s kicking units were underinflated by two pounds.

After team complaints, officials took the ‘K-Balls’ into the locker room at halftime where they were discovered to weigh 11 pounds instead of the legal limit of 13.5, per sources.

The underinflated footballs didn’t travel as well in the Foxborough weather on Sunday and sources indicated that’s why Patriots kicker Chad Ryland and Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker missed field goals in the first half. Sources noted that the footballs traveled farther in the second half once inflated to the proper 13.5 PSI.

Yeah, I hadn't heard about under inflated balls in the NFL since the last time the Patriots had a controversy (deflategate). I'm sure it was just a coincidence. Sure, sure, NE fans.

During the game, my son and I were talking about how the ball seemed to make a weird little jog in the air after being kicked (by either kicker). We couldn't figure out why because it didn't look like it was windy. I guess this explains it.

Seems dumb to take the risk now as a 3-win team when you'd really rather tank for one of the top 2 picks anyway.

You make a good point. Don't care, the Chiefs won anyway. Still, it is an interesting coincidence that it was the Patriots, of all teams.
