The Chiefs lost the matchup in a final score of 30-21.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_5-0\">Mahomes made the gesture, in which he used his fingers to mimic shooting a gun, after throwing a fourth-quarter touchdown pass to tight end Noah Gray. The NFL ruled that the touchdown celebration was not acceptable.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The NFL fined <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Chiefs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Chiefs<\/a> QB Patrick Mahomes $14,069 for unsportsmanlike conduct (violent gesture) as he celebrated a touchdown pass last week in Buffalo \u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/dXgnmYJSYp\">pic.twitter.com\/dXgnmYJSYp<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TomPelissero\/status\/1860430782860259607?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 23, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_9-0\">Per CBS Sports, Mahomes was previously fined $50,000 in December 2023 for &#8220;verbally abusing&#8221; an official during a game against the Bills involving a play that led to the Chiefs losing.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_11-0\">Chiefs head coach Andy Reid received a $100,000 fine from the same game for publicly criticizing an official, the NFL reported.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\">Until last Sunday&#8217;s game against the Bills, Mahomes had led the Chiefs through an undefeated season.
