Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is just messing with opponents right now.
In the second quarter of Saturday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders he broke out a spinning huddle that smoothly transitioned into a trick play that appeared to result in a touchdown for Kadarius Toney.
The only problem: A holding penalty negated the entire thing.
But you can never take away the initial play, and it is certainly going to give the Chiefs' future opponents something to think about when they see it on film.
Just watch this.
So this just happened?

This is the sort of things the Chiefs offense does, and it always seems to have a way of working. Well, until the holding penalty, that is.
Never fear for the Chiefs, though, as Toney ended up scoring on the very next play.
And on the very next play, @Chiefs get the TD!

A win gives the Chiefs the No. 1 overall seed and a bye week in the AFC playoffs, but there remains a chance that the AFC Championship game could be played at a neutral site due to the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals only playing 16 regular season games.
