Refs force Chiefs to bench Jawaan Taylor after blatant targeting
The Chiefs benched Jawaan Taylor, one of their major offseason signings, after referees called four infractions against him.
Taylor was criticized on social media for allegedly avoiding false starts against the Lions in Week 1.
Before the Chiefs momentarily pulled Taylor, Matt Verderame reported four penalties against him: unlawful formation, false start, holding, and holding.
Taylor added, "I've been doing it honestly for years," following Week 1.
It was a huge game on Thursday night and a large stage, so everyone was watching. It garnered more attention than expected.
Taylor is getting more attention now that the Super Bowl champs are in town, so it seems logical that he got away with a brazen move in Jacksonville.
