The Kansas City Chiefs snapped a two-game losing streak on Sunday, defeating the New England Patriots 27-17. They secured the win despite another moment of ignominy from WR Kadarius Toney, who contributed more to the Patriots' chances of winning than his own team's.
With under 10 minutes remaining in the game, QB Patrick Mahomes dropped back and threw a strike to Toney that hit the speedster directly in his hands. Toney was unable to hold onto the ball, and to make matters worse, he bobbled it and turned the would be catch into a tip drill that ended with linebacker Jahlani Tavai intercepting the pass.
Fans quickly hopped onto social media to lambast Toney for his latest embarrassing goof.

One Pro Football Focus writer on X (formerly Twitter) described Toney as āWyle E Coyote in a football uniformā for his cartoonish errors. Media personality Trey Wingo simply posted āevery week.. EVERY WEEKā to note how regularly Toney makes a baffling play.
Other evaluations of Toney included the claim he is āpure comedy at this pointā (probably not to Chiefs fans) and that he is āthe most unserious player in the NFL.ā
One fan warned that āToney should not go on social media today.ā
One person who wasn't laughing? Mahomes, who was caught by cameras after the play showing visible frustration with Toney. Fox commentator Daryl Johnston warned that Mahomes was ānot gonna trust (Toney) anymore.ā
The wideout finished the win with two catches for a paltry five yards. The drop didn't end up costing the Chiefs a much-needed win, but it sure seems like it will affect Toney's role in the team's offense moving forward.
