A holding penalty at the end of Super Bowl LVII will be talked about for years
A game-altering penalty.
That is how Greg Olsen of Fox Sports described what happened with under two minutes to go in Super Bowl LVII. With the Kansas City Chiefs facing a 3rd and 8 at the Philadelphia Eagles’ 15-yard line, and the game tied at 35, Patrick Mahomes dropped to throw. He looked to connect with wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster.
The pass fell incomplete, and it looked as if the Eagles had held the Chiefs, and the field goal team would come onto the field.

GLENDALE, Ariz. — There was 5:15 left to play and Super Bowl LVII between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs was tied. Then Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs offense took the football.
And didn’t give it back until Harrison Butker kicked a 27-yard field goal with 8 seconds to play to give the Chiefs a 38-35 victory.
It came after a 12-play and 66 yard march by Kansas City that took 5:07 off the clock.

Instead, the play was overturned after a lengthy replay review, with officials ruling the ball hit the ground before Smith could maintain control.
