NFL Fines Patrick Mahomes $14,069 Over Weak Celebration vs. Buffalo

NFL: AFC Championship-Cincinnati Bengals at Kansas City Chiefs

On Saturday, representatives from the National Football League hammered Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes for a touchdown celebration against Buffalo.

After throwing a touchdown against the Bills, Mahomes celebrated by pointing both fingers at tight end Noah Gray, which the NFL saw as a violent gesture.

 

The celebration was not penalized during the game, but upon the review of the matchup, the league deemed the celebration unsportsmanlike conduct.

The matchup between the Chiefs and the Bills was another historic matchup between AFC heavyweights, with Josh Allen and the Bills getting the job done late. The loss handed Mahomes and the Chiefs their first loss of the season and dropped the team to 9-1 overall.

The fine generated some interesting responses from fans on social media, and here were some of the best ones from the situation.
