PFT: Chiefs Believe Knile Davis Can Speed Up His Play

Chiefs believe Knile Davis can speed up his play
Posted by Mike Wilkening on June 28, 2013, 2:01 PM EDT

Speed would not appear to be an issue for Chiefs rookie running back Knile Davis. After all, we’re talking about someone timed at 4.37 seconds in the 40-yard-dash at the NFL Scouting Combine.

However, Chiefs running backs coach Eric Bieniemy reportedly believes Davis can become even faster on the field.

As Davis told KCChiefs.com, it comes down to arm movement. Bieniemy, Davis said, has encouraged the rookie tailback to focus on “keeping my arms pumping.”

Said Davis: ”. . . I had a tendency, when I first got here, to drop my arms and I would slow down, but he’s shown me little techniques to help me get out of my cut, run faster, how to stretch the field and showing me the different concepts of why I’m doing it; not only did he tell me the detail and correct it, but he let me know why I’m doing it and I put it all together.

“The NFL is big on knowing what you need to do and knowing why.”

One more obvious area in which is Davis can improve is his ball security. He fumbled 13 times in less than 400 career touches at Arkansas, per Pro Football Weekly’s 2013 Draft Preview. The hunch here is that if Davis wants to show he’s increased his speed, he’ll first need to show he will hold onto the ball.

Which RB is the odd man out? Draughn or Gray?

He can't be much worse than he was last year.

Have to teach our running back that he should move his arms when he runs. Was his dad the guy from Dragnet?

Great. So he'll fumble faster.

Can he fumble faster?

Dante84 06-28-2013 03:45 PM

If he's running super fast maybe he fumbles forward real far? So it will be like a punt.

Yeah, Gray was clearly impressive in his 7 carries.
