KANSAS CITY, Mo. At home in Connecticut and about 1,200 miles from Kansas City, Chiefs offensive lineman Lucas Niang did his best to have his own rookie season while opting out in 2020 due to concerns about COVID-19.
He worked out four days a week, just like his teammates, he just didn t have a game on Sundays.
Niang spent 60 to 90 minutes working with trainer Brett Yarris of BX Movement in homework sessions of sorts, executing techniques the Chiefs wanted Niang to perfect during his season away.
Parts of some of their sessions are available on YouTube, including one centered on having Niang work on anchoring against a strong bull rush from an opposing defender.
