Fine Day: Another Chiefs WR Docked for 2nd Straight Week

The Jacksonville cornerback got tangled up with Brown, who was blocking on Kareem Hunt’s run midway through the first quarter.

Something that triggered the contact

Immediately before Brown contacted Lewis with his open hand – something the Chiefs know very well doesn’t result in an ejection – Lewis appeared to either say something or do something that triggered the wide receiver. Lewis forcefully tilted his helmet into Brown’s facemask.

Regardless, whether fighting on a playground or an NFL field, the second guy usually gets caught. Brown’s 15-yard penalty, however, didn’t wind up hurting the Chiefs – thanks primarily to Tyquan Thornton’s fantastic 32-yard reception. Kansas City finished the drive with the game’s first touchdown.

Brown’s fine was the only levied by the league against either team from Monday night’s game.
