BREAKING NEWS: NFL Delivers Massive Punishment to Chiefs’ Star Just Before Playoffs

The Kansas City Chiefs are looking to become the first team in the Super Bowl era to win three consecutive Super Bowls.  They’ll be the first team since the 1960s Green Bay Packers to win three consecutive championships (1965-67).

However, one starter is facing a hefty punishment from the NFL just before the playoffs get started.

According to a source:

Nearly $15,000 penalty for a celebration violation seems a little high.  Although the NFL has these rules in place and players are well aware of whats allowed and what’s not.  Here is a look at Worthy’s stats this season:
