Denver Broncos linebacker Jonathon Cooper started the Kansas City Chiefs’ dismal season on Saturday night.
The Broncos captured the AFC West title for the first time since 2015 after the Los Angeles Chargers lost to the Houston Texans. The Chiefs have been at the top of the division since 2016, with Alex Smith and Patrick Mahomes leading the way.

Cooper made his feelings about the Chiefs clear with explicit messages aimed at the franchise.
“F— the Chiefs,” he wrote on X. “B—h made pansies.”
Cooper has been a bright spot for the Broncos defense over the past three seasons. He hasn’t missed a game since 2022. This year he has eight sacks and 49 total tackles in 16 games. He is a big reason why Denver’s defense has been one of the best all season.

It was the first time since 2013 that the Broncos reached the thirteen-win mark in a single season. That season, the John Fox-led team reached the Super Bowl, but lost to the Seattle Seahawks.
