Kansas City Chiefs rookie sixth-round pick Darwin Thompson has made his presence felt throughout training camp, establishing himself as one of the best running backs of the preseason.
It may sound like a cliché, but Thompson has all the makings of becoming a starting back in the National Football League. His speed, balance and receiving skills alone already make him a great option in a deep group of backs. Fans have been given small tastes of Thompson’s skills through the first two weeks of the preseason.
The NFL preseason may not be the real, aggressive football we are used to seeing during the regular season.
