By now we have all seen the video, and we were all probably about to cry. Patrick Mahomes, the MVP quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, was hurt, as a Jacksonville Jaguar defended landed on Mahomes' ankle.
There are people that think it was a dirty play, and there are people who aren't making much of the play.
One prominent NFL analyst thinks it was definitely a dirty play.
Warren Sharp, who is widely respected around the football world, thinks so:
While there are a lot of things I agree with Sharp on, this is not one of them. I think the defender dropped to Mahomes' ankle because Mahomes was pulling him as he was running forward. I think it would be a reach to say he was being a dirty player.
Then again, others agree with him. And they are considered reputable figures when it comes to Chiefs media.
Chiefs media members aren't the only media members who thought it was dirty, either:
I don't think it was dirty, but I do think there is a case to be made for both sides. Let's just hope Mahomes is healthy soon.
