Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid fined for criticizing officiating after loss to Bills

The comments were sparked because of an offside call on WR Kadarius Toney that negated what appeared to be a spectacular play by Travis Kelce and a possible game-winning score.

The coach and quarterback railed at officials for the calls and that will prove as costly off the field as the penalty was at Arrowhead.

Reid has been fined $100,000. Mahomes will be docked $50,000.
