On Sunday afternoon, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney was flagged for a costly offsides penalty that ultimately nullified what would have been a go-ahead touchdown late in the game. It was obviously disappointing, but it sounds like the Chiefs are doing what they can to move on from the play.
During his press conference this week, Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy opened up about the play a little bit, calling it “a good teaching moment” while also expressing his frustration with what happened.
“I think it’s a good teaching moment for all of us — for me as a coordinator, for all of us as coaches, for KT,” offensive coordinator Matt Nagy said in his Thursday press conference according to Pro Football Talk. “Obviously, none of it was intentional. I think that’s the frustrating part for all of us, is in a moment like that, you know KT didn’t do that maliciously or intentionally. It’s a big moment in the game, but it is what it is, and we’ve got to learn from that.”
It was a costly penalty, but it’s clear that the team can’t dwell on it any longer and has to move on to their next game against the New England Patriots.
