Mecole Hardman: The Key Player to Watch in the NFL’s Changing Kickoff Landscape

NFL Team Adds Former Georgia Wide Receiver Mecole Hardman

In 2019, the Kansas City Chiefs drafted Mecole Hardman in the second round of the NFL draft. Since then, he has played for them for all five seasons of his career and helped the team win a Super Bowl with his touchdown reception in overtime. Despite having a career-low 15 receptions for 118 receiving yards and no touchdowns last season, Hardman’s value lies not only in his receiving abilities but also in his talent for returning kickoffs. With the NFL changing kickoff rules for the upcoming season, kickoffs will play a more significant role, making Hardman a key player for the Chiefs. This story was originally published on UGA Wire.
