After a heated Sunday night showdown against the Detroit Lions, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes woke up Tuesday morning to some unexpected news. Following the postgame chaos and ongoing NFL reviews surrounding the brawl that broke out at Arrowhead, new developments are unfolding that could directly impact Mahomes and his team moving forward.
The NFL is continuing its investigation into the altercation that involved Lions safety Brian Branch and Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, with Mahomes’ role now drawing attention after footage showed him taunting Branch earlier in the game. While Mahomes didn’t throw a punch or physically engage in the postgame fight, the league is reportedly reviewing all available video to determine whether his actions helped escalate tensions.
It’s not the kind of Tuesday the two-time MVP was hoping for — especially after leading Kansas City to a convincing 30-17 win over Detroit. For Mahomes, this latest twist adds drama to what should’ve been a clean victory celebration.
As the Chiefs prepare for Week 7, all eyes will be on whether the NFL’s findings lead to any repercussions or simply fade as part of another fiery Sunday night in the league. Either way, the headlines aren’t slowing down anytime soon in Kansas City.
