Chiefs’ Kadarius Toney Says He Regrets Infamous Instagram Live Rant
Ahead of Super Bowl LVIII, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney says he regrets his infamous Instagram Live rant that caused some controversy for his team ahead of the AFC championship game against the Baltimore Ravens. In the screen recording of the NSFW rant that went viral, Toney can be heard cursing and saying, “I’m not hurt, none of that. Hip, knee, nuh-uh.”
Toney was ruled out for the Jan. 28 game due to a hip injury and personal reasons, initially reported to be the birth of his child. Naturally, fans believed Toney was saying that Kansas City was lying about his injury but on Monday, he said that he was talking about his former team, the New York Giants.
“It kinda started [like] that, but in the process of that I guess it got interrupted,” Toney said on his rant. “So, it got a mixed message I guess you could say then a lot of footage got chopped up and released. So, it made it like I was attacking the one [Chiefs] I love the most. I’d never attack the Chiefs, never say anything about the Chiefs, who I was referring to was the Giants fans, people in my comments.

“I was referring to them, which I shouldn’t have,” he continued.
During his tumultuous time with the Giants, Toney repeatedly spent time arguing with fans online and said the team was lying about his multitude of injuries.
