Chiefs RB Spencer Ware Grateful for Opportunity in Kansas City

He didn’t have the overjoyed smile you would have expected considering it was his best game to date as a professional football player.

He was understated, calm and respectful as he stood by his locker and recounted the game in which he stepped in for the injured starter Charcandrick West, who left Sunday’s game against the San Diego Chargers early with a hamstring injury.

Spencer Ware was drafted out of LSU in the sixth round (No. 196 overall) of the 2013 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks, and before 2015, he hadn’t had a carry in his professional career.
