Juan Thornhill Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys ,48commentsThe second-round draft pick spoke to the media at training camp on TuesdayCDTOnce the NFL announced
announced Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill would not be suspended in
2019, many people wondered about Chiefs rookie wide receiver Mecole Hardman.
Because of his speed and ability in the return game, Hardman was often compared
to Hill. The two players do have similar skill sets, so while Hill’s future was
still up in the air, many had reached the conclusion that Hardman was drafted to
be a replacement for Hill.While Hardman’s potential role in the Chiefs offense
may have changed once Hill was cleared to play, the second-round pick believes
his mission is still the same — and sees an opportunity to learn from one of the
best players in the league.“I think my job, it still is what it is, but I’m glad
that Tyreek’s back,” Mecole said during a media availability at Chiefs training
camp on Tuesday. “I’m happy that he’s here. I’m ready to learn from
him
Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys 2019 , watch him practice and everything he can teach me I’m (going to) learn. Hopefully we can go into the season ready to
go.”Hardman had a somewhat eventful offseason. Along with working out to stay in
shape, he took some reps with Patrick Mahomes and the rest of the Chiefs
receiving corps — and a video of Hardman surprising his mother with a new house
went viral.“It was special, just being able to do that for her,” he told the
press. “I’ve been dreaming about that since I was little, so just being able to
get it done it meant a lot to me. I know it meant a lot to her.“She picked it
out. actually,” Hardman continued. “She didn’t know I was going to get it for
her, so that was a good surprise for her.”Buying a house for his mom is only one
of Hardman’s many career goals.He was asked what he wants people to see from him
in his first year in the NFL.Hardman pondered the question for a moment — but
his answer was loud and clear. “I just want everyone to know that I came in to
do my job,” he said. “I came in to work hard, I came in to learn. I came to be a
team player — to be with the team. Everybody’s goal is to win a Super
Bowl

league’s top-scoring offense, and an MVP quarterback.Now, he’s moving to the
team that ranked 30th in points scored, and a second-year guy from
Wyoming.Amazingly, he sees similarities between Patrick Mahomes and Josh
Allen.“Pat’s mobility definitely helps,” Morse said, via Matt Parrino of
NYUpstate.com. “Josh has got that same deal. That always helps an offensive
lineman. Pat was such a professional but you definitely as a center and a
quarterback need an open line of communication, and that starts with practicing
on the field. Just getting repetitions and also being with each other in the
meeting room and maybe a few extra meetings and such. Just to see [Mahomes]
progress as a quarterback last year and the strides he made — it was
impressive.”OK, so mobility is one thing they have in common
Juan Thornhill Jersey Womens , along with having two arms, two legs and a head. Also, neither of them have been in my kitchen. Beyond that, Morse may be the
first person to draw the link between the two.Mahomes threw five times more
touchdowns than Allen last year (50-10), but having Morse snapping to him and
anchoring a new-look line certainly creates the opportunity to narrow that
gap.“I’m looking forward to hopefully making that next step with Josh,” Morse
said. “Each quarterback is different and I’m looking forward to understanding
his intricacies. I’m just here to try to make him the best football player he
can be. And hopefully he can help me out as well. . . .“[He’s] I think a really
good quarterback. I think Josh is a heck of an arm talent. I think he’s got such
a bright [future] after seeing what he did in year one. I still have to learn
and grow as a football player and I’m sure he’ll say the same thing about
himself. I’m hoping we can do that together and hoping we can do it as an
offense.”And maybe one day, Allen and Mahomes will have a little more in
common.
