The Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes Acknowledges That 2024 Could Be His Last Year with the Team due to…

Tensions briefly ran high during the Kansas City Chiefs’ practice on Wednesday.

Wide receiver Kadarius Toney took exception to a hit from defensive end George Karlaftis.

Toney threw the ball at Karlaftis, and some other Chiefs players appeared to exchange words with the third-year edge-rusher.

At one point, tight end Travis Kelce confronts Karlaftis as well.

On-field extracurriculars aren’t uncommon as NFL teams prepare for the regular season.

Houston Texans cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. shoved tight end Dalton Schultz during their practice on Wednesday, triggering an intra-squad scuffle.

The moment certainly reaffirmed Kelce’s status as a team leader.

The nine-time Pro Bowler is the most tenured player on the roster with 159 appearances across 11 years so far, all of which have come in a Chiefs uniform.

Wednesday serves as a lesson for the rest of the league. You’ll have to go through Kelce if you have any issues with a member of Kansas City’s offense.

Kelce bumped Karlaftis and appeared to be animated, pushing him a bit after saying some words. Karlaftis then sprinted off with some other defenders, but he certainly made things fiery with the hit.

As one of the captains of the team, it was imperative for Kelce to step in and say something.

Football is football, but a hit like that could have hurt Toney, who has struggled mightily with injuries throughout his career.
