With the Chiefs facing 1st-and-14 at their own 5-yard line, Patrick Mahomes threw a checkdown pass to Pacheco.<\/p>\n<p>Pacheco rushed toward the sideline and rammed into Chargers cornerback Kristian Fulton before going out of bounds for a short gain. No flag was thrown on the play. But Pacheco was penalized after the game for lowering his helmet.
