NFL fans are going off on Kansas City Chiefs star wide receiver Rashee Rice for a “classless” action during Monday’s home game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
During the showdown at Arrowhead Stadium, cameras showed Rice getting into an argument with Raiders cornerback Jack Jones. Rice took the mouthpiece off of Jones’ helmet and proceeded to throw it:
The move forced Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce to call a timeout, since Jones couldn’t return to the field without his mouthpiece. Fans went on to rip Rice, with some calling it “disgusting” and “classless.”

It was indeed a very frustrating day for the defending Super Bowl champs, who got very little going in a stunning 20-14 home loss on Christmas Day.
The Raiders’ defense was so dominant that rookie QB Aidan O’Connell only had to throw for 62 yards in the victory. The Chiefs were limited to 308 yards of offense on 74 plays and were just 5-of-16 on third downs.
With the loss, the Chiefs (9-6) have already clinched their worst regular season record since Patrick Mahomes became their starting QB in 2018. Kansas City had won at least 12 games every year from 2018 to 2022, including 14-win campaigns in 2020 and 2022, but now they officially can’t finish better than 11-6.
