Jawaan Taylor strikes again as latest penalty sums up Chiefs' 2025 season

In the span of just a few years, Kansas City Chiefs offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor went from someone who was viewed as a major free agency addition to someone who has quickly become synonymous with hurting this team at the most inopportune times.

Taylor, who has become synonymous with penalties due to his propensity for false starts and holdings, took a touchdown off the board in Week 12 against the Indianapolis Colts when a Patrick Mahomes to Travis Kelce score was nullified by a Taylor facemask penalty. The Chiefs had to settle for a field goal

With an Ashton Dulin 48-yard catch setting up another Colts touchdown that put Indianapolis up 14-3 in the first half, there's a good chance that Kansas City lost all of their momentum in what became a must-win game thanks to the former Jacksonville Jaguars starter once again drawing the ire of officiating.
