As per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Toney, who hasn’t played since Week 15, was ruled out due to a hip ailment and for “personal reasons,” meaning he will miss the game.
Due of his difficulties with drops and mental errors on the field, Toney became a target of criticism on social media from irate Chiefs supporters. When word leaked out that he wouldn’t be playing in the AFC championship game, jokes about him began to circulate.
