Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney was a net negative in Thursday night's 21-20 loss to the Detroit Lions. On Friday morning, he made a move that might help him evade some of the criticism that came from his season-opening performance.
The 24-year-old deleted his account on X, formerly Twitter, Friday morning. He left his Instagram account active but the comments are restricted.
Toney's X handle went dark after he dropped three passes, one of which was intercepted and returned for a crucial Lions touchdown. It occurred with 11 minutes remaining in the third quarter as safety Brian Branch caught a pass that slipped right through Toney's hands.
