The Chiefs’ Daniel Kilgore had an epic response to his mid-haircut COVID scare

The Kansas City Chiefs narrowly avoided a massive COVID scare as Adam Schefter reported that the team had to intervene to stop haircuts with a barber who had tested positive for the coronavirus on Sunday.

While Patrick Mahomes was among the 20-plus players and staff to have appointments scrapped, the same couldn’t be said for receiver Demarcus Robinson and center Daniel Kilgore.

The two players were placed on the COVID-reserve list due to the close contact with the barber. But on Wednesday, Schefter added an unintentionally hilarious detail of the whole scare:

Kilgore’s haircut was ended before the actual cut was complete.

But you have to hand it to Kilgore because he took the disappointment of the entire situation about as well as anyone could have done. He tweeted this edited photo as NFL Twitter was making jokes about the haircut fiasco.

Well played. That wins right there.

But look on the bright side, it’ll grow back.
