#Chiefs undrafted rookie LT Kahlil Benson on Monday night:
• 32 pass-blocking snaps
• 1 pressure allowed (3.2% rate).
• Excellent in the run game
His story is unreal: Benson won a National Championship at Indiana last season but went undrafted and unsigned. He attended Chiefs camp as a tryout player alongside 75+ players, earned a contract, made the 53-man roster, started Week 1—and balled out against Denver’s vaunted defense.
Per @NextGenStats, Benson allowed the fewest pressures among all rookie OTs in Week 1, which includes 3 first-round picks.
This is the most accurate encapsulation of what Indiana fans have gone through to get the mountaintop, all boiled down into 4 minutes. I am crying.
If hoosiers_edits from TikTok is on here, take a bow. 🥲🥲

Last year at Cal, Fernando Mendoza was knocked out on a controversial hit by Wesley Bissainthe in a crushing loss.
In last night’s national championship…Bissainthe was the last defender Fernando ran through on that 4th down TD.
This movie will have to be a trilogy to properly convey all the absurd storylines.
I have lived in California for 18 years of my life and been to many Rose Bowls.
I've never seen a fan base take over SoCal like Indiana fans have this week.
#BREAKING Longtime Bloomington High School South English teacher, Mrs. Elizabeth von Buchler, passed away sometime last night or this early morning peacefully after fighting an undisclosed cancer battle since she left the classroom back in February. Students and faculty have been informed of her passing throughout the day and counseling is offered to help console students and faculty if needed. Elizabeth von Buchler was a prominent English teacher at Bloomington South for over 20 years and she made a profound impact on the lives of students and faculty throughout the school as a teacher, leader of the Academic Super Bowl club, and a prominent advocate for keeping libraries open, reading, and championing students to learn about renewable energy.
Mrs. von Buchler will be missed dearly, as both a former student and alumnus who took her English course as she made a profound impact on my life as many others could say too. No plans for memorial services or other arrangements have been made at this time.
Last night a miracle happened.
It was a little after MIDNIGHT & I woke up to the sound of banging yelling.
My three year old son was screaming & beating on his door.
He’s normally a great sleeper, so I RAN downstairs to check on him.
I realized Coach Cig went to the Stone Cold Steve Austin school of speeches, and it’s awesome. I’m with you Coach, let’s win, and crown a new heavyweight champion of the #B1G for years to come. #iufb#potfb
