Marquette King’s antics draw Del Rio’s wrath

Raiders coach Jack Del Rio has been supportive of punter Marquette King’s antics all season. He’s even laughed out loud after a couple of King’s dances — The Ray Lewis tribute and the Pee-wee Herman — after kicks. That all stopped Thursday night in the loss at Kansas City.

“He can’t have another penalty,” Del Rio said. “Cannot have another penalty. I’ve allowed him to have his freedom. I want him to express himself. I think that’s when he’s at his best. We can’t have routine 15-yard penalties out of our punter.
