SO DISAPPOINTING AS BUFFALO BILLS COACH EVENTUALLY DREW BACK.

Patrick Mahomes called Josh Allen on the phone. The quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs desired to personally apologize to Allen for his remarks made during Sunday’s game.

Apart from the public apologies that Mahomes has extended, he desired to have a direct conversation with the quarterback of the Buffalo Bills regarding his comments made during their handshake following the Bills’ 20-17 victory over the Chiefs.

Allen was captured on camera hearing Mahomes say, “Wildest f***ing call I’ve ever seen.” “That play had offensive offsides, man? F***ing awful.

Naturally, Mahomes was referring to the last-minute offsides call against receiver Kadarius Toney, which negated a lateral that would have resulted in the game’s winning 49-yard touchdown.

Mahomes apologized in the days that followed on his weekly radio show on Monday.

Toney didn’t check with the officials to make sure he wasn’t offsides, according to Chiefs head coach Andy Reid. Toney’s teammates have defended him, and Mahomes apologized for his remarks again on Wednesday.

Despite the fact that they are now tied with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Cleveland Browns at 8-5 after the loss, the Chiefs are ahead in their head-to-head matchup with the Jaguars and have a superior conference record than the Browns.

The Bills, one of six teams with a 7-6 record, are stuck in a very crowded field to qualify for the AFC playoffs.

Wednesday was not a practice for Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, who left the game against the Jets three days earlier due to a concussion.

Using team video, Texans coach DeMeco Ryans stated, “C.J., he’s getting a little bit better.” “We’ll see how the week continues to go, but he’s still in the concussion protocol.”

After a quarterback sneak against the Broncos in Week 13, which left him staggering as he stood up, Stroud left for a concussion check. Despite missing two plays, he came back to complete the game.

With 6:24 remaining on Sunday, Jets defensive lineman Quinnen Williams hit Stroud, resulting in a concussion diagnosis.

In the NFL, very few players have bounced back from concussions the week following their diagnosis. Most remarkably, five days after being diagnosed, on Friday, Saints quarterback Derek Carr was cleared to play on Sunday.

It doesn’t appear likely that Stroud will play on Sunday after missing practice on Wednesday.

He will need to follow the procedures, the last of which is obtaining approval from a separate neurologist.

On Sunday, Davis Mills took Stroud’s place, and the Texans also have Case Keenum in their lineup.

“We feel that we have a really strong quarterback room since training camp,” Ryans stated. “In this league, anything can happen at any time. However, having three guys who can play without missing a beat is consoling.”
