Chris Jones flagged for roughing the passer on strip sack. It didn’t go over well.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - During the second quarter of the Monday Night Football game, Chiefs defensive end Chris Jones made a game-changing play. Until it wasn’t.

With the Raiders driving and already leading 17-7, Jones sacked Derek Carr on third down, stripped the quarterback of the football and recovered it.

But NFL referee Carl Cheffers threw a penalty flag, calling a roughing the passer on Jones.

Instead of the Chiefs taking possession of the ball past midfield with a minute to go in the first half, the Raiders took the penalty and kicked a field goal to go increase their advantage to 20-7.

Take a look at the video below and some of the reactions on social media.

This is not football anymore. I know we have to protect the QB but Chris Jones was recovering a fumble. We have gotten ridiculous with this.

Andy Reid didn't go into the tunnel, instead took off his mic stuff and called Carl Cheffers to him along the sideline. Reid let Cheffers have it.
