The Kansas City Chiefs are the kings of the castle in the NFL.
They have won three Super Bowls in the last five seasons and are on the doorstep of winning their third consecutive Super Bowl, which no team has ever accomplished.
Led by head coach Andy Reid, MVP quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and future Hall of Fame tight end Travis Kelce, this team is seemingly ready to make history again.
One key ingredient that this team may now possess is that of a great punter.
In a recent video that has surfaced, new Chiefs punter Matt Araiza can be seen punting a ball 75 yards in the air.

If the Chiefs have a punter who can flip the field consistently like this, it might be even tougher to stop them.
They already have arguably the best head coach, quarterback, tight end, defensive coordinator, and kicker in the game.
If they found an elite punter, it might be game over for the rest of the league.
A former Ray Guy Award winner, Matt Araiza was drafted in the sixth round out of San Diego State by the Buffalo Bills in 2022 but was out of the league for a few years due to off-the-field accusations.
Now that he has found an opportunity with Kansas City, perhaps he could be on track to be a real difference-maker for special teams coordinator Dave Toub and Co.
If he ends up being the same All-American punter that he was at San Diego State, which it seems like that might be the case, special teams units all around the league should be on high alert.
