During Saturday’s home divisional-round victory over the Houston Texans, Mahomes threw an outstanding touchdown pass to tight end Travis Kelce as he was falling to the ground. Inside the NFL showed a mic’d-up Mahomes celebrating the fantastic throw-and-catch, a key moment that helped Kansas City get the playoff win.

A non-call in the Chiefs' favor prompted some to call for Mahomes to be punished by the league. The Chiefs were driving into the red zone in the fourth quarter when Mahomes scrambled toward the sidelines and took a hit while still inbounds. He appeared to flop as he fell to the ground.
