August 24th – 10:57 AM
The Chiefs were officially back on the field in Kansas City this morning and head coach Todd Haley made sure the team understood that practice was still in “training camp mode” and that “the season is approaching fast.“
Haley began the day preaching an up-temp training camp. The day ended with the most excitement of practice as the team worked on a series of goal line plays at full speed/contact. After being stalemated on four goal line plays at the end of the Vikings game, the coaching staff decided to make these plays a situational emphasis.
The highlight of practice game on a goal line play where RB Larry Johnson went up-and-over a pile of defenders to stretch the ball across the goal line. Johnson got so high that he was almost up-ended while crossing the pane. The football came loose on the play and the defense lobbied for a fumble, while the offense claimed touchdown. This one would definitely have to go to the booth for review.
