Chiefs' Kelce fined $24,309 for tossing towel at official (The Associated Press)

NEW YORK (AP) -- Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been fined $24,309 by the NFL after he protested a non-call by mockingly chucking his towel toward an official and being ejected.

Kelce thought Jacksonville's Prince Amukamara should have been called for pass interference in the end zone during the Chiefs' 19-14 victory when he grabbed his towel and made like it was a penalty flag. The official threw his hat and another official tossed a penalty flag on Kelce, and the tight end was tossed from the game.

Chiefs teammate Daniel Sorensen was also fined $9,115 by the league Friday for a late hit out of bounds.
