KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Fresh off three months spent finishing his clinical work toward his medical degree, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif is back in football mode. The starting guard returned from his native Montreal, where he’s in medical school at McGill University, and rejoined the Kansas City Chiefs in time for the start of offseason practice this week.
Duvernay-Tardif may have to make the medicine to football transition only once more. After a couple of offseason months in emergency medicine in medical school and another in geriatrics, Duvernay-Tardif said he’s finished with his clinical requirements toward his degree.
