VIDEO: Speedy Chiefs Rookie Mecole Hardman Takes 104-Yard Kickoff Return to the House
By Michael Luciano
Perhaps now we know why Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Mecole Hardman was named to the Pro Bowl as a return specialist. The blazing fast ex-Georgia Bulldog helped put the Chiefs back on top against the Los Angeles Chargers, as Hardman raced 104 yards to the end zone on a kickoff return to give Kansas City a 17-14 lead.

As the old saying goes, "speed kills," and Hardman was able to make up for a Patrick Mahomes interception by streaking to the end zone.
