A player who is mobile enough for Andy Reid’s screen game

Chiefs HC Andy Reid typically likes to get creative and innovative with the screen game. Even with a savant at quarterback like Patrick Mahomes, Reid likes to find ways to incorporate easy passes with potential for huge gains.

When you have a big guy like Osemele, usually those types of players come with the stereotype of not being the most mobile or agile guy in space. Fans in Kansas City will be excited to learn that Osemele can get up on his horse and go. While Osemele might be better when he blocks a guy in a phone booth, he’s entirely capable of blocking out in the open field. In fact, he can be a heat-seeking missile in the screen game — one that linebackers, safeties and corners will struggle against.
