Any fallout from Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ post-game outburst after his team’s recent 20-17 loss to the Buffalo Bills appears to be over, according to Bills quarterback Josh Allen.
On Sunday, Mahomes displayed uncharacteristic emotion on the sidelines following a controversial call that negated Travis Kelce’s lateral pass that led to Kadarius Toney’s touchdown. The refs waived off the score after determining Toney was offside, leading the Chiefs to lose the game to the Bills.
After being heard in video clips calling out the decision, Mahomes then told Allen it was the “wildest f—ing call I’ve ever seen.”
On Wednesday, after his team held practice, Allen told the media that Mahomes reached out to him to apologize.
“I was just like, ‘It’s football, it’s a game of emotion,’ ” said Allen, recalling his conversation with Mahomes, per Sports Illustrated.
He added, “I know he didn’t mean anything by it, and I know the cameras kind of caught the last few seconds of what we were talking about. But he’s an ultimate competitor. He wants to win and that’s why he is who he is.”
For his part, Mahomes expressed regret about his behavior during and after the game during an interview with Kansas City’s 610 Sports Radio Monday.
“Obviously you don’t want to react that way,” the quarterback said. “I mean, I care, man. I love it — I love this game, and I love my teammates. I want to go out there and put everything on the line to win, but obviously you can’t do that, can’t be that way toward officials or really anybody in life.
Mahomes added, “More than anything, I regretted the way I acted toward Josh [Allen] after the game, because he had nothing to do with it.”
Mahomes also addressed the exchange between him and Allen while speaking to reporters on Wednesday.
“Definitely emotion talking when I was talking with Josh midfield,” he said. “Just to lose the football game in a tough way, but I let it go on too long. He [Allen] had nothing to do with it. And so, just show better sportsmanship and tell him ‘Great game’ and keep it moving.”
In the current NFL standings, the Chiefs lead the AFC West with an 8-5 record, while the Bills are in second place in the AFC East with a record of 7-6.
