Struggling Chief Commits Inexcusable Mistake in Practice

Third-year WR Skyy Moore has been the subject of heavy criticism from Chiefs Kingdom after a disappointing first couple of years, and he's now accomplished a feat so unfortunate that you'll have to do a double-take.

The team was in its collective bag of tricks during Monday's practice, though not every play went as swimmingly as the quadruple pass.

Moore apparently attempted a backwards pass during a kick return, throwing an interception in the process. On a kick return.

Chiefs WR Skyy Moore Somehow Throws Interception on Kick Return

The error sounds much worse than it likely actually was. New kickoff rules are set to transform a critical part of special teams, so it's logical to experiment with various strategies.

Moore was attempting a pass back to the other return man, a variation of a common play in leagues that use similar kickoff rules. It obviously didn't go to plan but that's what practice is for. There are reasons to question Moore's place on the roster though this isn't one of them.

It's funny regardless. The error would go down in the box score as a lost fumble, not technically an interception, but the highlight (or lowlight) would be circulated on social media for days if it actually occured in a real game.

The Chiefs are never shy about experimentation. That's part of the reason they've won three Super Bowls in the last five years and are favored to win another. Not every experiment goes well and the intensity of Andy Reid's training camps allows for some mistakes.

For Moore's sake, let's hope this is the last hilarious mistake he makes.
