Overview
- Trevor Lawrence stumbled, got up and scored with 23 seconds left to beat Kansas City 31-28 on Monday night.
- Chris Jones, who appeared to stop on the play, said Thursday it was "a teaching point" after assuming Lawrence was down and vowed to finish next time.
- Jones deactivated his social media accounts this week following heavy criticism, later saying he had removed them before the game.
- Andy Reid criticized the assumption on the field, repeating that players must "play the play," as Mahomes publicly backed Jones and advised limiting social media.
- The 2-3 Chiefs face Detroit next, with penalties and miscues drawing scrutiny and Jones' early-season output (seven tackles, one sack) weighed against his 2024 mega-deal.
