On Sunday, the Kansas City Chefs and Patrick Mahomes suffered their first loss of the season, losing 21-30 at the hands of the Buffalo Bills.

Unfortunately for Mahomes, the NFL rubbed salt in the wound by handing out a $14,069 fine for a “violent gesture” while celebrating a touchdown.

This gesture was Mahomes making his hands look like guns, which gun-themed celebrations are something the league has been cracking down on.

“It’s a long-standing policy and we are going to enforce that,” said Commissioner Roger Goodell in October. “Troy had a direct conversation with the union I think just last week about it.

We’re going to continue on that focus. We don’t think it’s appropriate in those circumstances and sends the wrong messages. So, we’ll continue to do that.”

It shows that the NFL is at least staying consistent with their punishments, even if it means finning Mahomes, who’s viewed as the face of the league.

The Fine Likely Won’t Hurt Patrick Mahomes Too Much

$14,000 is a lot, but Mahome’s net worth won’t take too much of a hit.

The two-time MVP is under a 10-year $450 million contract with the Chiefs, making the fine look like just a small chunk of change.

This doesn’t even include the massive amounts he makes from sponsorships.
