Joshua Kaindoh came into the National Football League with a very clear label: “project.”
That’s not intended to slight Kaindoh in any way. Rather, it was just clear to anyone and everyone that the K.C. Chiefs spent their fourth round pick on a player with very little in the way of collegiate production yet a rare blend of size, length, strength, and athleticism that should allow him to succeed if coached up correctly.
