The Kansas City Chiefs earned their best win of the season, defeating the Detroit Lions in Week 6 of the NFL season.

Kansas City got its third win of the season, having previously defeated the Baltimore Ravens and the New York Giants. Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs to a 30-17 victory over the Lions.

After the game, there was some extracurricular activity between both teams.

Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster and Lions safety Brian Branch got into a scuffle as players were beginning to shake hands to finish the matchup with a sportsmanlike ending.

A video caught Branch decking Smith-Schuster and the Chiefs' wide receiver retaliated against the Lions star, which ultimately ended in what looked like a massive brawl.

As both teams had a physical ending, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was staying away from contact.

Kelce was walking around the outskirts of the skirmish and decided not to get involved with the brawl after the "Sunday Night Football" game.

Kelce's reaction is shown near the end of the video attached.
