Patrick Mahomes Fined for Pretending to Shoot Gun After Touchdown Against Bills
Patrick Mahomes got a big penalty for a game, but not for a play … as far as the refs were concerned, it was way more ominous.
The Kansas City Chiefs QB was fined just over $14,000 for what officials called a “violent gesture” toward the end of the game against Buffalo last Sunday.
Mahomes had just thrown a touchdown pass and decided to celebrate by using his fingers to mimic the firing of a gun.

It’s not the first unsportsmanlike conduct with which P.M.’s been hit … he was fined $50,000 last December for “verbally abusing” an official. It’s interesting, that game was also against the Bills and the Chiefs ended up losing.
Fast forward to last Sunday … it didn’t go any better for the Chiefs …. they lost by a score of 30 – 21. This was the Chiefs first loss of the season.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid received a $100,000 fine from the same game for publicly criticizing an official.
Good news for Patrick … for him, the fine’s chump change.
