    If you watch this video you are likely to fall in love with the new Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce. FYI, some of the songs do contain very explicit lyrics that are not suitable for kids. Some of the hits are not suitable for kids either :) . BTW, I love this guys ability to run block. I lost count of how many guys he put on their back. Around the 10:00 minute mark you will see some ferocious special teams plays as well. Enjoy!

In the months, weeks and then days leading up to the 2013 NFL Draft, Nico Johnson talked to most teams in the league. Practically all of them, in fact.

“Kansas City was probably the only team that I didn’t talk to,” the former Alabama linebacker said Tuesday by phone from Andalusia.

So after he slept in Saturday, he showered.

“I was just waking up,” Johnson said. “As soon as I turned the TV on, my name popped up and my phone rang.”

The Chiefs were calling to tell him that they had selected him with the second pick in the fourth round. Johnson was the 99th player drafted overall.

The Chiefs’ regular-season opener at Jacksonville just got a little easier.

The NFL on Tuesday suspended Jacksonville wide receiver Justin Blackmon for the team’s first four games of the 2013 regular season for violating the NFL policy and program for substances of abuse.
