Baltimore Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith had a warning postgame for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Peyton Hendershot after a confrontation on the sideline Thursday night at Arrowhead Stadium. 

During the Ravens’ loss to the Chiefs to kick off the new NFL season, there was a moment early in the fourth quarter where Kansas City’s star quarterback Patrick Mahomes was scrambling to pick up a first down. 

After doing so, it appeared Smith pushed Mahomes late, and the quarterback went sprawling to the turf, which led the home crowd to start going ballistic thinking a penalty should’ve been called.

However, the yellow hankies stayed in the referee’s pockets. Smith, who was waving his hands at the moment to signal it shouldn’t be a personal foul, said Mahomes tried to sell it as a penalty.

"Oh, he flopped. Yeah, he flopped," Smith told reporters post-game. "That’s why the referees didn’t call it – it was a great no-call by the ref."

But as Smith was waving for the no-call, Hendershot, who was in street clothes as an inactive player for the Chiefs during the game, was seen taking exception to Smith’s actions on his quarterback. 

CHIEFS TAKE DOWN RAVENS AS HUNT FOR 3RD STRAIGHT SUPER BOWL STARTS OFF ON RIGHT FOOT

The broadcast showed a moment where Hendershot appeared to shove Smith, and the linebacker confirmed it after the game with a message as well.

"But, whoever [number] 88 is, I don’t know who he is, but he better watch himself," Smith said. "He did a little slick push."

Reporters quickly questioned Smith again to confirm what happened, as he also seemed to turn around after Hendershot pushed him on the Chiefs’ sideline, leading to a scrum before the tension dissipated. 

"Whoever No. 88 is, I have no idea who he is, but I’ll see him when I see him," Smith concluded before taking another question. 

The Chiefs would go on to score on that drive, as rookie Xavier Worthy picked up his second career touchdown on just his third touch of the football in his NFL debut, a 35-yard score due to blown coverage.

Smith’s personal stat line was a solid one, as he led the Ravens in tackles with seven (four solo), while picking off Mahomes late in the first half as well. He did, however, have a horse collar tackle on his first action of the regular season when trying to take down Rashee Rice. 

The Ravens ultimately fell to the Chiefs, the reigning Super Bowl champions, in tragic fashion as it appeared they had a chance to tie, or even win, the game after tight end Isaiah Likely caught what looked to be a touchdown on the final play of regulation. However, Likely’s toe was an inch out of bounds.

Since these are not division foes, the Ravens won’t be seeing the Chiefs again until a potential playoff matchup like they had in the AFC Championship Game earlier this year. 

If and when that does happen, Smith was very clear that he’ll be seeing Hendershot after having problems with his actions in Week 1.

All right, so stop me if you've heard this one before. The Department of Justice and the FBI just announced another investigation of Russian influence in American presidential politics. The DOJ charged two Russian employees of RT, the Russia-state-run media outlet, with funding a $10 million scheme to push right-wing viewpoints and help Donald Trump get elected. 

The DOJ seized 32 internet domains that they say mimicked legit U.S. news outlets, all to spread disinformation. So what was that disinformation? Well, it was "unaffordable prices for food and goods," that DEI might be bad, and that crime committed by illegals is happening. Now hold on a second. Those topics sound kind of familiar. It's like the stuff we talk about. How convenient is that for our weaponized justice system? Every single issue we cover can now be chalked up to Russian disinfo. At least they left out the restful benefits of Relaxium. 

So Russia paid $10 million bucks for stuff you could have gotten from me for free. Well, I would have only charged seven. $10 million is actually a pay cut, I kid, but trust me, $10 million bucks isn't much on TV. Fox spends that every week on hair and makeup. It was $20, but then Geraldo left. They actually hired a migrant crew just to landscape his mustache. But sorry, guys, hate to break it to you. It isn't Russia destroying our faith in government, it's our government telling us that Trump can't be president because Moscow prefers him to Kamala. I know, Russia doesn't want Kamala. Even the people who embraced Karl Marx think Kamala is too much of a Marxist. That's like The View saying a Big Mac is too high in calories. 

REPUBLICANS ‘SKEPTICAL’ OF DOJ MOVE TO BLOCK RUSSIAN ELECTION INTERFERENCE

Look, I don't want any foreign state interfering in our elections, but my dog's Instagram has more influence. One fake social media account, alleged to have spread Russian lies, had only seven followers. It was called CNN California. Yeah, but with only seven followers. Seems pretty accurate. Meanwhile, notice what meddling evildoer wasn't the target of any indictments. Iran, who hacked Trump's campaign, funded protest groups that took over American colleges and sponsored Hamas, which killed U.S. citizens. I mean, why target Russia, not Iran?

Iran tried to kill Donald Trump. Well, I guess some questions answer themselves. Meanwhile, China's assets drive around Democrat senators. They screw Democrat congressmen like Eric Swalwell. He smells, and they get themselves on the staff of New York governors. I guess the problem with Chinese influence is that an hour later, Democrats are hungry for more.

Yeah, I'll take it. Although the hard part for China is finding a spy willing to stomach Swalwell's farts or look at Hochul's face. So what is the difference between whatever this is and whatever the U.S. does on our own? Well, we do more damage to our citizens. Seriously, did Russia cover up Joe's dementia for four years? Did Russia exercise a silent coup once Joe's illness was exposed? 

CONSERVATIVE INFLUENCERS LINKED TO COMPANY IN RUSSIAN ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE SPEAK OUT, SAY THEY'RE VICTIMS

Did Russia push mail-in voting and no voter ID, completely destroying exit polling as a way to gauge a fair election? Did Russia push voting machines over paper ballots? Did Russia force RFK Jr. to stay on the ballot against his will in the hopes it hurt Trump? Did Russia paint Trump as Hitler and push hoaxes that put a target on his back? Did Russia elevate the only Democrat on earth who makes you miss Joe Biden? And did Russia, in the worst interference of all, weaponize our justice system in a perversion called lawfare, all to a cheering American media? 

Damn. I'll take foreign interference over this domestic s--- any day. Now, maybe that's why the Dems are sweating even when it comes to cheating. They hate competition.
