Kansas City Chiefs’ quarterbacks and rookies reported to training camp on Tuesday, as the team looks to defend their back-to-back Super Bowl titles.
Suamataia, when asked about which aspect of training camp he expects to be the most challenging, made it clear that one thing stood out from the rest.
“I would say the playbook. That really – you know, all of us – we’re all talented guys,” Suamataia said. “I mean, that’s why you’re in the league [and] in the NFL, but it’s who’s going to put that foot forward and dive into the playbook more and really know the offense inside and out. I would say that would be the biggest [challenge].”
As the starting left tackle spot remains unclaimed at training camp, Suamataia’s ability to learn Andy Reid’s offense could make or break his bid to top Kansas City’s depth chart as a rookie. Keeping Patrick Mahomes upright is the most important job for the offensive line.
