Despite it being his sixth season in Chicago, defender Johan Kappelhof almost feels like a new addition at preseason camp.
After missing the majority of last year due to injury, the Fire’s longest-tenured player has been a welcome returner among the group and is fully recovered from the quad issues that plagued his 2020 season.
“I feel great,” he said. “I feel fresh. I've been working out the whole off-season. I feel good to go, and I'm available for the coach wherever he needs me, and I think I can contribute my experience, my qualities on the ball defensively.
