The controversy surrounding Kadarius Toney’s offsides penalty during the Chiefs’ Week 14 game has been the main topic of discussion in the NFL. After the game, Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid expressed their frustration with the officials, and many Chiefs fans demanded answers from the league. However, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell defended the officials’ decision, stating that it was absolutely the right call. While the Chiefs’ complaints were more about the lack of warning from the officials, Goodell believes that the infraction was too egregious to ignore. In addition, Goodell wants to ban the “hip-drop” tackle, which has caused several injuries over the years. He hopes to remove it from the game entirely by 2024.
