PROVO — As the Detroit Lions found out too late, give Kyle Van Noy a chance to do it his way and he can be a destructive, disruptive defensive dynamo in the National Football League.
The KVN factor should be on full display in Sunday’s Super Bowl LIII when the New England Patriots face the L.A. Rams. New England’s Van Noy continues to excel after leaving the Lions, who picked him in the second round in 2014.
