WINTERS IS HERE

fines Sunday night.

In the 90 seconds that he spoke to reporters before the Chiefs’ communications staff cut him off, the tight end ripped into referee Carl Cheffers and his crew. Kelce openly questioned the integrity of the officials and said Cheffers “shouldn’t be able to wear a zebra jersey every again.”

“He shouldn’t be able to wear it at Foot Locker,” Kelce said, adding a few expletives.

Harrison dipped his shoulder especially low as he tried to turn the corner, and he may have been losing his balance before Fisher ever hooked him.

“James Harrison made a great play,” Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier said.

Then again, Harrison almost certainly would not have gotten to Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith, who was already delivering a soft pass to tight end Demetrius Harris in the end zone. He was several yards downfield on his pass rush, and Smith had stepped up in the pocket.

But the flag was thrown and the Chiefs were forced to try again, this time from the 12-yard line, and this time Smith’s pass was incomplete. The Steelers received the kickoff, converted a crucial first down to maintain possession and ran out the clock from there. that the longtime NFL assistant interviewed on Monday. Ryan was most recently the Buffalo Bills’ assistant head coach/defense this past season under his brother Rex.

Ryan has been defensive coordinator for the Oakland Raiders, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints. The Bills ranked 19th in defense this season, and the Saints were last in 2015.

Former Jacksonville Jaguars coach Gus Bradley also interviewed to be Washington’s defensive coordinator.

Washington fired Joe Barry after it ranked 28th on defense the past two years. The Jets kicked off what promises to be a busy offseason by locking up their top inhouse free agent on Monday night. Right guard Brian Winters signed a fouryear extension for about $8 million per year, according to a source. Winters has started 41 games in four seasons, including 13 in 2016. Although Winters, 25, finished the season on injured reserve with a torn rotator cuff, the former thirdround pick was one of the few bright spots in an otherwise forgettable five-win campaign. — Manish Mehta & AP
