Sounds like there's dissension in the ranks of the Kansas City Chiefs. ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that running back Thomas Jones and rookie receiver Jonathan Baldwin threw down in the locker room.

Baldwin was injured in the fight and could miss the rest of the preseason with a wrist injury. That's all the info ESPN had on the fight. Definitely not a good sign.

UPDATE:
Pro Football Talk reported that the story was broken first by 610 Sports' Nick Wright, who estimates that Baldwin could be out six to eight weeks and is questionable to start the season.

Via the PFT report, a source told Wright that Baldwin is "as advertised. Diva, spoiled, doesn’t wanna listen. Can run a Go and a Slant, and doesn’t wanna work."

You know Nick didn't break the story, right?

Took it from a tweet by someone else and called it his own.

Yeah, he's replacing KK

NFL is nothing but high paid thugs and they are adored and awed by many, this doesn't say much for our culture but it's in ruins anyway.

It sounds like Todd Haley's Recruitment Team needs to do a little more research to find PROFESSIONAL Athletes. Kansas City gets a bad enough reputation for the horrible crime rate. The last thing it needs is it's own NFL Team bringing down the community morale another level. These athletes are forgetting they are perceived as THE TEAM and not just some guy that broke his wrist punching some other guy. COME ON CHIEFS! LEAVE YOUR EGOS AT HOME!

who ever throw the first punch should be charge with battery and put in jail. These guys when not on the field. They were in the locker room. perhaps it was hazeing by
Thomas Jones. Who knows chiefs mangement did the silent treatment, just like the people do in the getto.

Not a very smart move on the rooks part to come in thinking he runs things. Baldwin has not proved or done anything extroidinary in the NFL. Shows a lot about his character. Nice job T-Jones, way to let him know thats not how we do things here in Killa City.

Please don't allow them on the Plaza after 9 pm without their handlers-they are nothing but thugs.
