The Houston Texans had an eventful start to their divisional round game against the Kansas City Chiefs. It’s tough to have a total breakdown on a play, a dumb penalty and a shove from a player to coach all within the first 13 seconds of the game.
The Chiefs got off to a good start Saturday with a nice 63-yard kickoff return from Nikko Remigio. Texans cornerback Kris Boyd eventually tackled him, forcing a fumble that the Chiefs recovered. Then Boyd lost his mind.
Boyd threw his helmet as he was exiting the field, which was a 15-yard penalty on Houston. Then he gave a big shove to Texans special teams coordinator Frank Ross as he got to the sideline.
All of it is a bad look for Boyd. That’s not a tiny little shove as he was trying to get by Ross to the bench.
The Texans’ defense helped the situation from getting worse. They held the Chiefs to a field goal after the kickoff return and penalty. That helped the opening sequence from being a total disaster.
But it was certainly not the first 13 seconds that the Texans hoped for in their quest for upsetting the back-to-back champs.
