Look away Philadelphia Eagles fans.

Before the 59-yarder, Carr had gone 22 straight games without a completion of 35-plus yards. Against the Chiefs, he also tossed a 46-yard pass to rookie speedster Henry Ruggs in the first half.
Agholor's 59-yard touchdown catch is the fifth 50-yard touchdown reception of his career and first since Week 16 of the 2018 campaign against the Houston Texans.
At halftime, Agholor is the Raiders' second-leading receiver behind Ruggs. He has two receptions on two targets for 67 yards and a touchdown.
