Justin Reid intercepts Brock Purdy on the opening drive

The Kansas City Chiefs defense wasted no time making an early impression in their Super Bowl LVIII rematch against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 7.

After a failed fake punt attempt on the Chiefs’ first drive gave San Francisco favorable field position, Kansas City’s defense quickly responded with a big play.

When 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy rolled out of the pocket against the Chiefs defensive line, veteran safety Justin Reid knew exactly where the ball was going and was able to jump into the throwing lane to intercept a pass.

Check out Reid’s impressive interception in this video posted by the Chiefs’ official Twitter account:

Kansas City was unable to score on the ensuing drive and the Chiefs would enter the second quarter trailing by three points.

Look for Reid and Kansas City’s other veteran defensemen to remain active against San Francisco as the Chiefs look to keep their undefeated record intact heading into Week 8.
