Watch: Jake Bates kicks 43-yard field goal to score preseason win in Kansas City

A strong day for Lions kicker Jake Bates ended on a high note. Bates was good from 43 yards out and gave the Lions a 24-23 preseason win over the Kansas City Chiefs.

The game-winning field goal capped off a day in which Bates went 4/4 on field goals, including a 55-yard kick, his second successful field goal from at least 50 yards this preseason. Bates was responsible for 13 of the Lions’ 24 points Saturday.

Bates is now 5/5 on field goals this preseason, two from at least 50 plus the 43-yarder as time expired Saturday in Kansas City.
