Knile Davis and the Kansas City Chiefs didn't wait long before striking in the opening slate of playoff games.

Against the Houston Texans, Davis blitzed through the middle on the opening kickoff and cranked out a 106-yard kickoff return for a touchdown.

It was the second-longest kickoff return touchdown in postseason history, and certainly helped the Chiefs' likelihood of winning:

Kickoff return TD increased Chiefs' chance of winning by about 14 percentage points. KC win probability was up to ~72% after return TD.
