  "account": "The Kansas City Chiefs have decided to retain embattled kicker Harrison Butker for their upcoming game against the New York Jets, following another missed field goal in a recent loss to the Denver Broncos. This comes one week after the team signed former All-Pro Justin Tucker to the practice squad and just days after Butker's costly error in Denver. Coach Andy Reid confirmed Butker's active status for the Sunday matchup. The Chiefs had led the Broncos 24-13 at halftime of the last game, but Butker's miss of a crucial 54-yard field goal ultimately led to the 28-24 defeat. Butker acknowledged his mistake, stating it was a complete miss and that he didn't even give it a chance. Despite his recent struggles, Butker praised his recent practice sessions, highlighting his enjoyment talking with newly signed Tucker. In other team news, cornerback Mansoor Delane returned to practice after missing a second game due to shoulder injuries, while offensive guard Kingsley Suamataia is expected back after missing two consecutive games for a coach's decision.",
