NFL referees slammed for being inconsistent on “ridiculous” penalty rulings

Kansas City Chiefs offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor is under the spotlight and receiving penalties aplenty so far this season since joining the Super Bowl champions

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has hit out at NFL officials after offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor was penalised on Sunday.

Taylor, 25, was hit with two illegal formation penalties during the first half of their game against the Chicago Bears. At the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2, the big free agent signing was called for five penalties while facing his former team.

The focus on Taylor stems back to the NFL Kickoff Game against the Detroit Lions. On opening night, officials were lenient on the player lining up in illegal positions throughout his Chiefs debut.

However, it was something that analysts were pointing out during the broadcast. Reid now feels that is impacting the treatment of Taylor.
