The NFL referees union addressed what it called "conspiracy theories" that officials show bias in favor of Super Bowl champs the Kansas City Chiefs.

The head of the union representing NFL officials calls allegations that officiating crews are biased in favor of the Kansas City Chiefs or any other team “insulting and preposterous.”

The executive director of the NFL Referees Association is the latest to release a statement to rubbish the continued conspiracy theory about bias towards the Kansas City Chiefs. Roger Goodell called it a "ridiculous theory" and three-time Super Bowl winner Julian Edelman labelled it as "baloney" and now the head of the refereeing union has also rejected the claims.
