NFL Ref Carl Cheffers Explains Kadarius Toney Call: WR's Offsides 'Beyond a Warning'

The Kansas City Chiefs may have been livid about Kadarius Toney being called for lining offsides late in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills, but the officials in charge of the game believe they made the right call.

"Ultimately, they are responsible for wherever they line up," referee Carl Cheffers told reporters after the game. "No warning is required, especially if they are lined up so far offsides where they're actually blocking our view of the ball. We would give them a warning if it was anywhere close, but this particular one is beyond a warning.
