An encouraging update on the progress of Tanoh Kpassagnon

We last discussed second-year linebacker Tanoh Kpassagnon’s chances to make an impact on the Kansas City Chiefs’ 2018 defense back in mid-February.

Kpassagnon, 23, stands at a staggering 6 feet 7 and 280 pounds, but has yet to click in the pros, being so raw coming out of Villanova, which plays in the CAA.

The conclusion I came to at season’s end was that the Chiefs felt Kpassagnon was simply not ready, as evidenced by his non-inclusion in the team’s lone playoff game (Keep in mind Frank Zombo played 52 snaps).

Then, this year, the Chiefs drafted Breeland Speaks with their top pick, No.
