After returning from a bye, the Kansas City Chiefs entered Week 6 against the Los Angeles Chargers as the AFC’s only undefeated team.

However, things took a disastrous turn during the very first offensive drive at Arrowhead Stadium on October 18.

Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce exited the game with what appeared to be a serious ankle injury. He walked gingerly off the field and got his ankle taped up. Kelce, however, returned to play, a great sign for the 37-year-old veteran. But fans couldn’t believe there was no call on the play.

Chiefs Fans Called Out Chargers Linebacker Daiyan Henley for What Appeared to Be a Hip Drop Tackle

Social media immediately blew up with comments calling out Chargers linebacker Daiyan Henley for what appeared to be an illegal tackle on Kelce.

Dr. Davis J. Chao posted a video of the tackle and wrote, “By video, mild right high eversion ankle sprain. Possible to tape and return.” One person commented, “be sure to say how it was a clear hip drop.” One fan added, “The [expletive] hip drop is taking all our guys out. And guarantee the league won’t fine him.”

Kansas City Star’s PJ Green posted, “Daiyan Henley’s tackle on Travis Kelce was a sliding hip drop where his shoulder dinged Kelce’s ankle. They’ll probably tape him up and see how it goes. Definitely could’ve been a flag.”

Another person complained, “Henley should have been flagged for a hip drop tackle on Travis Kelce there.”

A hip drop tackle, when called, results in a 15-yard penalty. According to league rules, a first-time offender will be charged $17,911. That financial punishment rises to $23,882 for the second offense.
