Patrick Mahomes disciplined by NFL over gun gesture

Not even Patrick Mahomes is immune to being disciplined by the NFL.

Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported on Saturday that the Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Mahomes has been fined $14,069 by the league for a “violent gesture.” During Kansas City’s game against the Buffalo Bills last Sunday, Mahomes did a finger gun gesture after firing a touchdown pass.

The incident occurred in the fourth quarter of Kansas City’s eventual 30-21 loss to Buffalo (which ended the Chiefs’ perfect season). Mahomes tossed a one-yard touchdown pass to tight end Noah Gray in the back of the end zone and proceeded to do the gun gesture. Here is the video.

The NFL has been pretty consistent this year with fining players for doing gun gestures (including this fellow AFC star). Now the three-time Super Bowl MVP Mahomes has joined that category as well.
