Houston Texans cornerback Kris Boyd showed off the racist message that he received after he shoved special teams coach Frank Ross.

Kris Boyd had a rough start to Saturday's 23-14 AFC divisional round loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Boyd, the Texans cornerback, shoved special teams coach Frank Ross after being penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct during the opening kickoff of Saturday's game.

In response to the penalty, Texans special teams coordinator Frank Ross was seen on the sideline yelling at Boyd. As the 28-year-old defender approached his coach, he shoved Ross hard in the chest with two hands.

No one had a busier opening kickoff — or a worse opening kickoff — in the Texans-Chiefs game than Kris Boyd. At the onset of the AFC divisional game in Kansas City, the Texans cornerback/special-teams player watched Nikko Remigio take the kick and return it to the Houston 32-yard line before Boyd chased him down from behind.

Texans cornerback Kris Boyd nearly shoved Houston special teams coach Frank Ross to the ground after the opening kickoff of their divisional playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Houston Texans face the most important game in franchise history Saturday in a divisional round matchup at the Kansas City Chiefs. One member of Houston's special-teams unit couldn't keep his composure early with a trip to the AFC Championship on the line.

The Texans’ Kris Boyd made the tackle and forced a fumble by Nikko Remigio. Rather than trying to recover the loose football, Boyd started to celebrate and headed for the sidelines. The Chiefs recovered the football and Boyd decided to compound his foolishness by shoving special teams coach Frank Ross on the sidelines.
