Kansas City Chiefs: Two Offensive lineman to watch in training camp

Kansas City Chiefs fans need to keep an eye on Laurent Duvernay-Tardif

Another name that can be on the offensive roster is guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif. Duvernay-Tardif graduated from McGill in Canada and is a skilled blocker. One of his best moments being in the game against the Chargers that helped Tyreek Hill score his first NFL touchdown.

However, his talent and passion to help others extends off the field. Duvernay-Tardif received the ESPY’s humanitarian award for his decision to opt-out of the 2020 season to stay in his home country of Canada and work on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic as a paramedic. Duvernay-Tardif ‘s focus and drive on and off the field will be a big benefit to the offensive line. The only possible drawback would be his year off.  The pandemic took a lot out of everyone and Duvernay-Tardif will have to show how much initiative he had to keep up with those who played in the 2021 season.

Duvernay-Tardif is a great blocker and the Chiefs will need someone that can protect the quarterback. Duvernay-Tardif was a part of the super bowl winning team and he will come to a team that has high expectations. Duvernay-Tardif seems up for the challenge and is a welcomed return to the chiefs.

Duvernay-Tardif and Thuney have a high chance of starting this season and are ready to take the field. Pre-season couldn’t come fast enough for the excited fans of the Chiefs Kingdom.
