Ravens’ Roquan Smith slams Chiefs’ Hendershot for flopping: ‘He better watch out’ | News, scores, highlights, stats and rumors

Roquan Smith is not happy with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Peyton Hendershot.

Following the Baltimore Ravens’ 27-20 Week 1 loss to the Chiefs, the linebacker talked about a “slick shove” he received from Hendershot after a hit he placed on Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

Hendershot is in his first season with Kansas City after being acquired in a trade with the Dallas Cowboys on Aug. 27. He did not play in Thursday’s game due to a coach’s decision and is currently listed as the No. 4 tight end on the depth chart.

Smith is a major factor in the Ravens’ defense and he showed that on Thursday night. He recorded seven tackles and recorded one interception, proving to be an intimidating force for Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense.

This comes after a 2023 season in which he had 158 tackles, 1.5 sacks, one interception and earned a first-team All-Pro selection. It’s a catalyst for a Ravens defense that is one of the most polished in the league.

If the Ravens and Chiefs meet again in the playoffs, Smith will no doubt have Hendershot on his mind.
