UNITED STATES

Overtime wasn’t needed for the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers to determine a victor this time around, as the Super Bowl rematch resulted in Patrick Mahomes & Co. winning again on Sunday. With the 28-18 final on the road, the Chiefs are the NFL’s only remaining undefeated team after the Minnesota Vikings lost to their NFC North rival Detroit Lions on a last-second field goal earlier Sunday. Once again, it wasn’t Mahomes’ best effort out on the field Sunday, but he managed to get the job done, which included moments where he worked some of his patented “Mahomes Magic” with his legs. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMMahomes scored a rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter, which was his first score on the ground in his last 32 games, including the playoffs. His elusive abilities in and outside the pocket have developed into the stuff of legend at this point, but Mahomes found a seam from one yard out to put the Chiefs up 21-12 as the quarter began. Earlier in that drive, Mahomes rushed for his longest yardage of his career as he scampered his way not just past the San Francisco 30-yard line for a first down but an extra 26 yards for a total 33-yard gain on the ground.It appeared like Mahomes was just going to go out of bounds when he reached the first-down marker, but he hit a quick stop so the San Francisco defender couldn’t tackle him and continued to march along the left sideline before finally going out. PATRICK MAHOMES SAYS HE LETS TAYLOR SWIFT BAKE WITH HIS DAUGHTER AMID POTENTIAL TRUMP VS HARRIS DIVIDEMahomes finished the day with 39 yards on the ground on five carries, though he didn’t fare well through the air with 154 yards on 16-of-27 passing with two interceptions and no touchdown passes. Nonetheless, the Chiefs leaned on the ground game, anchored by Kareem Hunt with his 78 yards and two touchdowns, while Mecole Hardman iced the victory in the Bay Area with an 18-yard end-around sprint to the end zone for a score as well.Meanwhile, Brock Purdy was having issues all game long with the Chiefs’ defense, which continues to be a formidable unit led by coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. Purdy threw three interceptions, two of which came on back-to-back second half drives that the Chiefs scored their fourth-quarter touchdowns on in response. He was 17 of 31 through the air for 212 yards, though he did rush for two touchdowns on eight carries for 27 yards.The 49ers were already down a man as Deebo Samuel attempted to battle an illness to start the game, but he ultimately had to bow out. Then Brandon Aiyuk, to whom San Francisco just paid big money this past offseason after a long contract roller coaster, appeared to suffer a serious leg injury after being tackled in the right knee area. He was carted off the field.In turn, it was tight end George Kittle with a game-high 92 yards receiving on six catches for the 49ers, while rookie Jacob Cowing had 50 yards on two catches thanks to a 41-yard shot down the field that set up a touchdown for Purdy.As the Chiefs enjoy yet another win this season, the Niners are still searching for consistency as they drop to 3-4 on the year. Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Breast cancer patients and survivors are speaking out on how the treatment landscape is setting them up to not just survive, but thrive.A recent report from the American Cancer Society (ACS) shows that although cases are still rising — particularly among younger women and groups such as Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders — mortality rates are dropping. Since 1989, the rate of breast cancer deaths has declined 44%.BREAST CANCER PATIENT SAYS NEW TYPE OF CHEMO SAVED HER LIFE: ‘I AM THRIVING’ Younger women under 50 saw a 1.4% increased rate of breast cancer year over year, while the latter groups faced 2-½ times the number of diagnoses, the report revealed.The rise of breast cancer diagnoses is partly due to an uptick in risk factors, such as obesity and exposures to alcohol and ultra-processed foods, according to Karen Knudsen, CEO of the American Cancer Society in Pennsylvania.”I’M A RADIOLOGIST – TO REDUCE BREAST CANCER RISK, EAT THESE 5 FOODS AND FOLLOW THESE HEALTHY HABITSIt’s not all bad news, she told Fox News, as a “survivor tsunami” is on the horizon.”We have almost 19 million cancer survivors now in the United States,” Knudsen said. “And with the new advances in cancer treatment, we’re going to see even more survivors.”More than half of cancer patients and survivors say they’ve taken on medical debt, according to the ACS. A majority weren’t prepared for the costs, with 73% saying they are concerned about their ability to pay current or future health care expenses. Three in five people who are diagnosed with cancer face financial hardships, such as taking unpaid leave, losing health insurance or losing a job, the report found. More programs, clinics and workplaces are offering financial relief and services to help ease the burden on breast cancer patients and survivors, including temporary housing. One survivor, Shannon Barette, told Fox News that she owes much of her successful battle against bilateral breast cancer to Hope Lodge, an ACS community that provides housing for cancer patients and their caregivers in various locations across the country.When Barette faced struggles with her physical and mental recovery, Hope Lodge made it possible for her to receive treatment at NYU and overcome the associated financial burdens, she said.”Women need to focus on their treatment and recovery,” Barette told Fox News. POTENTIAL HEALTH BENEFITS OF GOING 30 DAYS WITHOUT ALCOHOL”We need a community to help every breast cancer survivor get the treatment they need. And they are entitled to world-class medicine. That should not be held back because of any kind of financial burden.”After going through almost 2-½ years of treatment — including immunotherapy, chemotherapy and reconstructive surgery — Barette was declared cancer-free.Most breast cancer patients rely on employer-sponsored coverage. When Fox Business correspondent Gerri Willis learned she had stage 3 breast cancer eight years ago, her employer provided her with the health insurance coverage she needed to undergo treatment without experiencing financial setbacks. “The diagnosis hit me hard, but I didn’t have to worry about being able to afford treatment,” Willis told Fox News.”My employer had great health insurance coverage, and I was never forced to choose between paying a bill and getting treatment — but I was one of the lucky ones,” she went on.”Too many women face the added pressure of having to find a way to pay big bills while fighting for their lives.”Some employer plans offer case managers to help employees work through paying the bills and out-of-pocket costs, Willis noted.For those who don’t have coverage, there are independent and government programs to help fund cancer essentials, from treatment to transportation. Coinciding with Breast Cancer Awareness Month, some clinics are offering complimentary laser tattoo removals for survivors who have radiation markings. “They’ve gone through a huge journey that has been very sad, and now they want to feel comfortable in their own skin, whether it’s in clothing or in bathing suits,” Dr. Kevin Tehrani, a surgeon at Aristocrat Plastic Surgery in located in New York City and Great Neck, Long Island, told Fox News. CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER”The removal process takes them to the next level of confidence and helps them move past the dark part of the journey.”Dr. Tehrani and his team usually spend three to four sessions removing the tattoos until they are completely eradicated. Earlier this month, the clinic removed four to five radiation marks from survivors.Most survivors did not even realize they could have the markings removed, the doctor noted.For more Health articles, visit www.foxnews.com/healthDr. Tehrani also offers free screenings for breast cancer survivors who receive silicone implants, which is the majority of patients who opt for reconstructive surgery. Although the screening is typically covered by insurance in most states, the clinic is enhancing the service with their ultrasonographic technologies.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign released a new digital advertisement that targets Black men’s love lives, insinuating that they will be rejected by women if they don’t have a plan to vote.The ads depict a dating game in which a Black man approaches a group of women who are holding balloons. They begin to ask him questions about himself, including how much he makes, how tall he is and whether he works out.The man’s answers get seemingly positive responses from the women, until one asks him if he has a plan to vote in November.”Nah, not my thing,” the man says, prompting all the women in the scene to pop their balloons.”Vote. Election Day is Nov 5,” reads a message at the end of the ad alongside a Harris-Walz campaign logo.BLACK GROUP FIRES BACK AT OBAMA FOR ‘INSULTING’ HARRIS PITCH: ‘WORST KIND OF IDENTITY POLITICS'”New Harris/Walz ad tells black men that women will reject them if they don’t vote,” Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology President Richard Hanania remarked in a post on X along with a video of the ad. “Memorable and works as an appeal to self-interest.”But not all users were sold on the content of the ad, with some arguing that the ad only served to “insult” and “dehumanize” Black men.”Democrats continue to dehumanize and insult black men and try to shame and pressure them into only voting for them,” one user wrote. “Kamala campaign doesn’t even try to engage respectfully.””Does the Harris Walz team really believe this will convince anyone to vote for them?” asked another.”Belittling and insulting,” another user added.”I think this might have the opposite effect,” one user quipped.‘AUTO WORKERS FOR TRUMP’ LEADER SAYS THOUSANDS POISED TO BREAK FROM DEMS OVER GREEN POLICIES, JOB KILLING REGSThe ad comes as some have begun to speculate that Harris is struggling to win over the support of young Black men, a typically dependable demographic of voters for Democrats.According to one Howard University Initiative on Public Opinion poll, 81% of Black men say they plan to vote for Harris, though that number drops to 68% for Black men under 50 years old, with 21% of that group indicating they plan to support former President Trump.Former President Barack Obama has also joined in on the recent appeal to Black men, arguing at a rally in Pennsylvania earlier this month that the group should have the same enthusiasm for Harris as they did for his campaigns in 2008 and 2012.”My understanding, based on reports I’m getting from campaigns and communities, is that we have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters of our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running,” Obama said at the time, adding that the lack of enthusiasm “seems to be more pronounced with the brothers” and that they might not want to support a female president.”And you are thinking about sitting out?” he said. “Part of it makes me think – and I’m speaking to men directly – part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.”The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to a Fox News Digital request for comment.Get the latest updates from the 2024 campaign trail, exclusive interviews and more at our Fox News Digital election hub.

U.S. Naval officials confirmed Sunday that the two crew members of a Navy jet that crashed near Mount Rainier in Washington last week were located and declared dead.The EA-18G Growler jet from the Electronic Attack Squadron out of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station crashed on a mountainside east of Mount Rainier on Tuesday afternoon. While the wreckage of the plane was located resting about 6,000 feet up in a remote, steep and heavily-wooded area, the status of the crew remained unknown without a site assessment of the debris area.Army Special Forces soldiers trained in mountaineering, high-angle rescue, medical and technical communication skills needed to navigate the difficult terrain assisted with efforts to locate the missing crew members as quickly as possible.On Sunday, the Navy said Electronic Attack Wing Pacific shifted from search and rescue efforts to recovery operations, noting that the two missing crew members had been located and were pronounced dead.NAVY JET LOCATED AFTER CRASHING NEAR MOUNT RAINIER IN WASHINGTON”It is with a heavy heart that we share the loss of two beloved Zappers,” Commander Timothy Warburton, commanding officer of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 130 said on Sunday. “Our priority right now is taking care of the families of our fallen aviators and ensuring the well-being of our Sailors and the Growler community. We are grateful for the ongoing teamwork to safely recover the deceased.In a press release, the Navy said out of respect for the families and in accordance with Navy policy, the identities of the crew members would be withheld for 24 hours after next of kin have been notified.Personnel will remain on site to recover debris and plan for the long-term salvage and recovery efforts, the Navy noted.NAVY PARACHUTIST CRASH-LANDS ON MOTHER AND TEENAGER DURING SAN FRANCISCO PERFORMANCE: VIDEOThe Navy added that the investigation into the cause of the crash is ongoing.The EA-18G is a variant of the F/A-18 family of aircraft, outfitted with a sophisticated electronic warfare suite that is used for tactical jamming and electronic protection, according to the Navy’s website. The jet was built to replace the EA-6B Prowler, and first went into production in October 2004.The jet made its inaugural flight in August 2006, and the first delivery of the aircraft was made on June 3, 2008, to VAQ 129 at NAS Whidbey Island.Each plane comes with a price tag of $67 million.

MetLife Stadium may not be Saquon Barkley’s home anymore, but it sure didn’t seem that way in the Philadelphia Eagles’ blowout win on the road over the New York Giants. Barkley went into this week not believing Giants fans, the ones who used to shower him with cheers, would boo him. But the reception didn’t matter, as Barkley silenced Giants fans and had Eagles fans jumping for joy after having his best game in his new uniform to date with 176 rushing yards and a touchdown in the 28-3 rout. Barkley only needed 17 rush attempts to torch his old teammates, breaking out chunk yardage runs, including a game-high 55 yards to ultimately set up his three-yard score in the second quarter. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe Eagles as a team rushed for 270 yards, with Kenneth Gainwell going for 56 yards on 13 touches, while quarterback Jalen Hurts had 22 yards as well. Hurts didn’t need to pass much in this game, going just 10-for-14 for 114 yards. But he did find A.J. Brown down the left sideline for a perfect 41-yard touchdown strike to put the Eagles up 14-0. The play also came on fourth-and-3, when the Giants, who were getting pressure on Hurts early, couldn’t get him down this time. EX-GIANTS LINEMAN UNDERSTANDS HOW FANS FEEL AS SAQUON BARKLEY THRIVES WITH EAGLES: ‘MVP OF THE NFL RIGHT NOW’Speaking of the Giants, the scoreboard says it all for the offense, as it couldn’t get a single thing going against an Eagles defense that was disrupting Daniel Jones the entire game. Jones was eventually benched in the second half in favor of Drew Lock, though it’s unknown at the moment if head coach Brian Daboll did so because it was a blowout or due to his poor performance. Jones threw for 99 yards on 14-for-21 through the air, while getting sacked eight times with his offensive line not holding up in the slightest. The Eagles exploited Josh Ezeudu playing left tackle for Andrew Thomas, who is out for the rest of the season after undergoing foot surgery. As a team, the Giants had just 119 yards of offense, while the Eagles posted 339 on the day. Giants owner John Mara said he would have a hard time sleeping if Barkley, the player his team took out of Penn State with the No. 2 overall pick in 2018, went to the Eagles. After what Barkley produced in this game, it’s easy to see why he had that thought process.   Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
