Ford got national exposure for it.Unfortunately, it was on a C’Mon, Man! segment on ESPN.None of that was fair to the rookie linebacker.But NFL players aren’t always treated fairly, and there was nothing to do but keep going forward.Late in 2015 http://www.chiefslockerroom.com/authentic-marcus-allen-jersey , Ford got the chance to start.In his second game as a starter — a pivotal game against the San Diego Chargers at Arrowhead — Ford exploded for three sacks and seven tackles, and he broke up a pass from Philip Rivers to Danny Woodhead in the end zone on the last play of the game.The play saved the game — and possibly the entire Chiefs season.In case you don’t remember, this was the season the Chiefs started 1-5, and needed to win 10 straight games to make the playoffs.If Ford hadn’t made that play, the Chiefs’ first playoff victory since 1993 probably wouldn’t have happened.The following season, Ford started 14 games and began to make an impact, recording 10 sacks.It gave fans some hope that Ford might finally be maturing into the player they would expect to get from the draft’s first round.But six games into the 2017 season, Ford had to step off the field, as a nagging — and painful — back injury required surgery to correct.Even worse, the circumstances of the situation required that the Chiefs pick up the fifth year of Ford’s contract.So now Womens Orlando Scandrick Jersey , the pressure is on for Ford.And through two games, he has been one of the bright spots of a Chiefs defense that could use some.In an analysis of the Chiefs victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, Pro Football Focus laid out the case.Speaking to reporters on Monday, a clearly relaxed and confident Ford said that he’s excited to return to Arrowhead Stadium to play the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday.“I’m really looking forward to it,” he said. ”It’ll be pretty emotional to me because the last home game that I was at, I was on the sideline because I had just gotten the second back surgery. To be here now — healthy once again — will be very emotional for me. I’m excited.”Head coach Andy Reid said Ford is completely ready to go this season.“He has a full grasp of the defense, and he’s healthy. He’s been nicked up here and there in years past. He feels good right now, and he’s moving fast. We saw that during camp. He’s in phenomenal shape. He’s done a good job with that. His strength is up. Most of all, he’s healthy. He’s able to get out there every day.”Ford said it had been a difficult trip back from the injury.“It feels good. It was a long road to get back — and I’m still getting better — but for the human being part, the wellness part Reggie Ragland Jersey , it’s good to be out there healthy. And now it’s good to get out there and sharpen the iron and get better each week.”Ford is aware that his defensive unit is under intense scrutiny after giving up so many yards (and points) in the season’s first two games, but he remains confident.“We can be very good. It’s funny to hear people talk about the yardage we’re giving up and all that. We’re a very new defense, and we’re making some really big plays out on the field, and we understand we’re not even scratching the surface of how good we can be. It’s very early. “We’re just going to continue to get better, and I think we’re going to shock a lot of people.“
