Kris Boyd shoves special teams coordinator Frank Ross after a kickoff penalty

A long Chiefs kickoff return to start Saturday’s playoff game prompted Texans cornerback Kris Boyd to remove his helmet and throw it away. The penalty flag that followed was just the beginning.

Cameras captured Boyd apply a two-handed push to special teams coordinator Frank Ross near the sideline.

While Houston’s defense stiffened, limiting the Chiefs to a field goal, it will be interesting to see how the Texans handle Boyd for crossing the finish line with Ross.

Boyd signed with the Texans in 2023. He appeared in 17 regular season games, primarily as a special teamer. He had 365 special teams snaps and 48 defensive snaps in the regular season.
