Chapter 973 True Wisdom


Chapter 973 True Wisdom

Knock knock.

A knock on the door broke the silence, and Reid didn't turn around, just said "come in."

Vicky entered the office and carefully closed the door.

"Coach! Did you see it?" Vicky couldn't hold back her excitement.

After three steps and two steps, Vicky also came to the floor-to-ceiling window, with a face full of joy, "Here, there, Frank Clark."

"I have heard before that he is a prickly man with a particularly bad temper. Although he rarely takes the initiative to cause trouble, as long as others provoke him, he will immediately ignore them and his fists will always move faster than his head."
< br>

"In the Seattle locker room, he and Earl Thomas clashed more than once, and even though everyone else said Earl Thomas was the problem, it was always concerning."

Judging from the rumors, Frank Clark is a person who believes in strength——

In other words, believe in your fist.

After transferring from the Seattle Seahawks' locker room full of rumors and conflicts to the Kansas City Chiefs, Veach is still a little worried.

Today, Vicki knew at a glance that Frank had come prepared.

Frank deliberately arrived at the training ground against time. Although he was not late, he arrived at the training ground on time. This action itself is worthy of study.

After joining the Kansas City Chiefs from the negative-rumored Seattle Seahawks, Frank knew all eyes were on him.

The Seattle Seahawks' strategy of using a franchise tag to retain Frank failed. Frank signed with the Kansas City Chiefs on a five-year, $105.5 million contract, and re-signed defensive end DeMarcu with the Dallas Cowboys this offseason. DeMarcus Lawrence's contract is very close, making him one of the top five defensive linemen in the league in annual salary.

It is worth noting that the contract extension negotiations between the Kansas Chiefs and Ford did not go smoothly. In the end, last season's starting linebackers Ford and Ray Grand were both traded. Ford went to the San Francisco 49ers, Ray Grand went to the Detroit Lions, and the Kansas Chiefs gained. A series of draft picks to lay out for the future.

The point is that Ford signed a five-year, $87.5 million contract with the San Francisco 49ers——

Lower than Frank.

In other words, the space occupied by the salary cap is lower than Frank.

You can imagine with your knees that some players within the Kansas Chiefs team should be strongly dissatisfied with these two transactions of Veach.

At least, Frank thinks so. After experiencing the tough and domineering atmosphere in the Seattle Seahawks locker room, he subconsciously entered a fighting state. He clenched his fists and raised spikes before he came on the field. This is his understanding of the locker room. .

After entering the training ground, Frank even looked around the place as if he was keeping away from strangers.

With that look, it wouldn't be a problem to come to the gym, as if he was about to swing his fist at any moment in the next second, and the murderous look in his eyes was not concealed at all.

Once on stage, the atmosphere has quietly changed.

Veach is ready to come forward. He doesn't want to feed the gossip media with revelations on the first day of spring training camp and let the defending champion make headlines in such a way.

However, Levi beat him to it.

Levi graciously stepped forward, introduced himself, gave directions, and finally welcomed Frank to the Kansas City Chiefs, and that was all.

So far, keep your distance.

Then, Levi turned around and continued training, sweating meticulously.

Frank stood there for a moment, obviously not expecting such treatment, and obviously not understanding what was happening here.

Frank remained vigilant and kept a distance. He stood there and observed for a while, gradually grasping the situation. He watched the tense atmosphere calm down little by little. Although his expression was still fierce, he still turned around and entered the locker room to change training. After taking it, when he came out again, he joined the training in silence.

The storm seems to have happened, but it seems not to have happened.

Vicky let out a long breath.

At least, they avoided the bloody drama of a group fight as soon as they met.

Following Vicki's gaze, Reed saw Frank who was warming up silently. Jones followed him without any dialogue. He just kept a certain distance and warmed up with Frank, so as to integrate him into the team.

With Jones's character, it is impossible for him to do this. It should be Levi's instruction.

Frank joined the league in 2015 and Jones in 2016. They are similar in age and in the same position. They need to develop a tacit understanding during the training camp.

Jones is a better choice than Levi to accept Frank into the team with open arms.

Reid, "Don't worry, this is not Seattle, our locker room doesn't need to worry."

Vicky let out a breath, "Fortunately, there are rookies."

"I just heard that the rookie arrived at the training ground at 5:30 in the morning."

"This year, several rookies wanted to leave a good impression and arrived at the training ground around 7:30, an hour and a half earlier than our scheduled training time. They thought they had more than enough time, but they were all dumbfounded."

"Haha."

"I didn't expect that a rookie would start so early."

Reed, "What if I said rookie on purpose?"

Vicky, "Huh?"

Reid, "I said, the rookie came to the training ground at 5:30 today because he knows that we have experienced a series of turbulences this offseason. At the same time, there may be different ideas among players, internal and external troubles, and we may face future challenges." Many uncertainties.”

"So he arrived at the training ground early specifically, hoping to capture the atmosphere in the locker room and draw everyone's attention back from the offseason as soon as possible."

"Do you believe it?"

Vicky was stunned for a moment, then thought about it seriously, "I believe it."

Although it was slightly unbelievable, Vicky was willing to believe it if it was Levi.

After all, that was Levi.

Reid, "Do you know what this means?"

Vicki glanced at Reid, not knowing why. He thought about it carefully before he reacted, and breathed out gently, "I know. You already said it at that time, coach, the rookie can become our team leader. We will regret it if we miss him.”

Reed chuckled, "So, rookies are the real smart people."

What does this sentence mean?

Vicky really can't keep up with Reed's leaping thinking. What is the relationship between leadership and intelligence? What is the context of Reed's conversation here?

After hesitating for a moment, Vicky reacted later.

Levi has achieved several successes with one stone. The most important thing is that Levi once again proved his worth, not only in the arena, but also outside the arena.

If Vicky wasn't a fool, he shouldn't have missed Levi so easily.

The real subtext of Levi's actions is: It's time for the team to show sincerity.

This is much more effective than the agent’s extravagant boasts and stretching.

This is also true. Neither Reed nor Veach can miss Levi.

Now, a very, very small group of people in the league have realized that big moves should be brewing behind the Kansas Chiefs' turbulent offseason.

They generally speculate that the Kansas Chiefs should prepare to renew Mahomes in advance. After all, no team should miss its cornerstone quarterback.

Half of these guesses are correct and half are wrong.

It is true that Veach needs to keep Mahomes; but the Kansas Chiefs' first task this offseason is actually to keep Levi.
