The uniqueness of the 2020 NFL offseason poses a big challenge for Kansas City Chiefs players who are looking to make improvements from the 2019 season. While they’re getting more one-on-one time in the classroom than perhaps ever before, they’re not on the field practicing yet.
That could pose a challenge for those who are looking to elevate their game. Who will rise to the challenge and become the most improved Chiefs player in 2020? We’ve got a few players in mind, but be sure to let us know your choice on Facebook, Twitter and the Chiefs Wire forums.
CB Rashad Fenton
Fenton surprised some people with his performance in 2019. Not many sixth-round picks play 15% of their team’s defensive snaps during their rookie year. While Fenton didn’t draw any starts in 2019, it was clear that Steve Spagnuolo and the rest of the defensive staff trusted him more and more as the season went on.
In 2020, Fenton might be called upon to play early in the season. Second-year corner Bashaud Breeland is facing a possible suspension early in the season. The only corner on the roster with experience in the system besides starter Charvarius Ward is Fenton. Increased playtime doesn’t always mean better performance, but it’s looking like Fenton will get every opportunity to show that he’s made improvements in 2020.
