Butker's 69-Yard Kick Doesn't Count | Kansas City Chiefs News

Harrison Butker just nailed a jaw-dropping 69-yard field goal in preseason—yes, through the uprights with time running out—sending Chiefs fans into a frenzy. But here’s the twist: it won’t count toward any official NFL records. The league doesn’t recognize preseason stats for record books, even though Butker’s kick beat the current official mark of 68 yards (held by Cam Little). Little also holds an unofficial 70-yarder from last year’s preseason, meaning Butker’s feat didn’t even crack that unofficial record. Still, the moment was electric—and yes, Mahomes was all over him. The Chiefs lost that game 16-15, but Butker’s kick? Pure highlight reel magic, even if it’s just a footnote for now.
