Joe Thuney says all the right things in opening Chiefs presser

New Kansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Joe Thuney said just about everything right in his opening Zoom press conference on Thursday; even his comments about the barbecue were acceptable. Thuney and fellow new offensive lineman Kyle Long shared some Q39 on Wednesday night.“Just amazing,” he described of the food — while not yet announcing a favorite restaurant. “Every bite was better than the last. Really good.” Thuney agreed to a five-year contract worth up to $80 million with the Chiefs on Monday after spending the first five seasons of his career with the New England Patriots Tony Gonzalez Jersey, who won two Super Bowls during his tenure. Thuney can play tackle and center, but he spent almost all of his Patriots career at left guard. At the time of this writing, Thuney is one of many options the Chiefs have at the guard position https://www.kccgear.com/shop-by-player. They are less rich at the left and right tackle positions after the team released longtime starters Eric Fisher and Mitch Schwartz earlier in March.Whether Thuney will kick out to left tackle after the Chiefs missed out on Trent Williams is unclear at this moment, but it is worth noting that the Chiefs have already officially described Long as a guard and Thuney simply an offensive lineman. Thuney was asked during his presser whether the coaching staff had suggested where he might play Shakur Brown Jersey.“Not yet,” answered the 6-foot-5, 308-pound lineman. “I just want to help the teamwhateverI can, in any capacity, and just want to contribute to winning, and thats really my main thing, so wherever that is, thats fine with me.” The Chiefs leadership released statements regarding Thuneys signing in conjunction with the opening presser.“Were very excited to add a proven player like Joe to our roster,” said Chiefs general manager Brett Veach. “He has a great deal of experience, including championships.
