Show Notes

On Thursday, Chiefs’ offensive lineman Lucas Niang became the first rookie to opt out of this season. Niang figured to compete for playing time with veteran guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif having already opted out. Instead, the door is open for veteran Keleche Osemele to step into a starting role.

On SportsBeat KC, we hear from Osemele, who met the media earlier this week. He talks about his previous stops in the NFL and his reaction to getting the news that the Chiefs wanted to sign him. After a break, Frank Clark speaks publicly for the first time since the Super Bowl. Clark played a big role in the team’s success last season in his first year with the team.
