Chiefs’ Kadarius Toney Didn’t Ask Officials If He Was Lined Up Properly Prior to Pivotal Penalty

After some scathing remarks for officials on Sunday night after a controversial offsides penalty on Kadarius Toney, Chiefs coach Andy Reid acknowledged that the wideout did not ask officials if he was correctly lined up during the pivotal play. 

The flag negated an almost all-time play after Travis Kelce caught a pass for a first down and lateraled it to Toney for what could have been the game-winning touchdown with his team down 20–17 against the Bills in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter.  

When speaking to reporters afterward, Reid called it “embarrassing” for the NFL that Toney wasn’t warned that he was offsides. The coach changed his tune a bit Monday afternoon when he revealed that Toney didn’t bother to check if he was lined up correctly.
