Pre-Camp Reads: Justin March-Lillard Brings Athleticism, Versatility to ILB

It’s impossible to not root for Kansas City Chiefs inside linebacker Justin March-Lillard.

His is the kind of story people get caught up in and want to follow.

March-Lillard originally got to the NFL by signing with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent in 2015 out of Akron. He was already an underdog, then turned heads with his play in his first training camp only to go down with a season-ending knee injury in the preseason.

March-Lillard fought his way back to the field—earning a starting position in his second season, which was last year, only to go down with a broken hand five games into the season.
