Man, wouldn’t it be great if wide receiver Rashee Rice was mic’d-up during the Chiefs’ “Monday Night Football” game against the Washington Commanders?
Rice caught nine passes for 93 yards and a touchdown, but he was also flagged twice during the game at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
One of those penalties didn’t look good.
After catching a 25-yard pass from quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the fourth quarter, Rice tossed the ball off the helmet of Washington’s Quan Martin.
That resulted in a taunting penalty on Rice, who was possibly trying to throw the ball to an official and didn’t realize Martin was in the way. (After the game, Rice said that was the case)
Chiefs coach Andy Reid may have wanted to know what happened because Rice made his case, although Reid didn’t seem convinced.
It was a funny moment from Monday night’s game, and I’d love to hear that conversation (if Reid said anything).
