The wet conditions at Sunday’s Chiefs training camp practice weren’t conducive to eye-popping offensive plays, but they did set the stage for a solid defensive outing.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was intercepted twice and backup Chad Henne was picked off once.
The pick-fest started out early when Steven Nelson grabbed his second interception of camp, nabbing a loose ball after cornerback Kendall Fuller knocked it away from Chris Conley. Linebacker Anthony Hitchens got a hand on Fuller’s pass break-up, sending it in the direction of Nelson, who scooped it up before it hit the ground.
Then, linebacker Ukeme Eligwe, filling in for injured Reggie Ragland, picked off Henne in 7-on-7.
