Attending a training camp practice is a big deal for most Chiefs fans. But the visit to Missouri Western State University proved extra special for one young man this week.
Former Olathe East High School football player James McGinnis made the journey to St. Joe with his parents, Patrick and Susan, almost two years after suffering a traumatic brain injury in a game against rival Olathe South.
Now 20, James and his folks waited along the helmet walk to meet offensive lineman Mitch Morse. After a big bear hug from Morse, the two walked up the hill toward the Chiefs’ locker room.
