ChiefsChris Jones Deletes Social Media After Costly Jaguars TD Draws Andy Reid’s Rebuke

Reid's public criticism intensifies scrutiny of a viral goal-line lapse during a season of limited output.

Overview

  • Trevor Lawrence scored a go-ahead rushing touchdown with 23 seconds left to cap Jacksonville’s 31-28 win after stumbling and then reaching the end zone.
  • Game footage showed Chris Jones standing near the play without pursuing Lawrence before the decisive score.
  • Jones deactivated his social media accounts this week following heavy online criticism of his effort on the late sequence.
  • Andy Reid said, “You can’t think that the guy is down… you have to play the play,” directly faulting Jones’s decision on the snap.
  • Jones said the defense “gave this game away” and must “finish,” while his season totals remain seven tackles and one sack despite a five-year deal worth about $158.7 million, drawing fan backlash and Emmanuel Acho’s “completely unacceptable” assessment.
