Was anyone penalized for the head-to-head contact? (That clip was all the football I’ve watched, this year.)

My first thought was well, and I haven’t watched since the kneeling business. 😁

Interesting point

It appears to me the KC guy dropped his head and initiated the head to head on the . tackler. It's usually the other way around and the one who drops their head is penalized.

I have not seen the video.

Usually, no foul is called unless one player lowers his head and makes first contact with the crown of his helmet.

If both players are at the same elevation and their helmets collide, usually, no foul.
