The Kansas City Chiefs completed their rookie-only training camp as the veterans started reporting for full team practice on Sunday. Third-string quarterback Chris Oladokun stood out during Friday’s session, emphasizing the importance of this period for both rookies and veterans, as well as his own personal development.
Oladokun noted the difference in intensity between rookie-only practices and when the veterans join in, highlighting the importance of studying the playbooks and stepping up in both on-field and classroom settings.
As he enters his third year with the Chiefs, Oladokun has focused on improving his passing mechanics with the help of Patrick Mahomes and quarterback trainer Jeff Christensen, giving him newfound confidence heading into training camp.
The offseason work has boosted Oladokun’s confidence, allowing him to feel more comfortable in the pocket and ready to showcase his improved skills during camp.
Understanding the value of each opportunity, Oladokun emphasized the importance of making the most of every practice repetition, especially with Mahomes and Wentz absent from Friday’s session.
With tough competition for a roster spot, Oladokun remains focused on competing and improving every day, regardless of who he is up against.
Despite the challenges, Oladokun is determined to compete at his best and earn his place on the team, demonstrating a strong work ethic and commitment to his development.
