Amid the four-day feast of NFL action over the Thanksgiving weekend, the Kansas City Chiefs nabbed a Black Friday special from the Las Vegas Raiders.

Second-year quarterback Aidan O’Connell had a chance to drive the Raiders to victory in the closing seconds, but the Chiefs recovered his botched snap to end it, 19–17. Kansas City (11–1) has nine one-score wins this season as opponents continue to give the two-time defending Super Bowl champions their best shot.
