Good friend of mine from ASU Paul Justin played long enough to get it. It was about $50k/yr pension and a medical plan iirc. Had to have either 4 or 5 years vested, can't remember which. Think it was 4. [Reply]
I've never been on the Chiefs Reddit page until today. The most upvoted comment on this story is someone referring to him as "KC Legend CEH". I don't think I'm ever going to go on that Reddit page again. [Reply]

He seems like a genuinely good guy.
I think we're going to see a renaissance of running backs. Barkley and to a lesser extent Henry are showing that elite running backs have value. In the future, I think we could see the running back position fork in the draft like the quarterback position. Elite guys will go high, and non-elite guys will go in the mid-rounds.
Yes and No.
Barkley and He Ty are the exceptions to the rule IMO. I still think teams will draft and discard running backs. Look at all the talent I. This years draft. You could get a damn good back in the 3rd round. Run the wheels off and repeat. [Reply]
Always hoped Clyde would somehow work out. Cheered for him when he played well. Sorry his career was cut short by PTSD. wish him only good things going forward. [Reply]
He was never the same after the injury in New Orleans. That really seemed to change him. Best of luck in the future, unless you rejoin your LSU teammates with the Bengals. [Reply]

I agree with this and it is truly a shame. When we drafted him I had high hopes but that did not pan out. Best of luck to him and I pray he gets through his issues. Thank you for being a CHIEF. :-) [Reply]
I remember a game where it seemed like not a single player could catch pass. Mahomes looked ready to kill someone after watching multiple drops. I can't remember if it was in the huddle or on the sideline, but CEH told Pat if he threw it to him he'd catch it. The next play was a reception for a big play.
That's probably the play I'll remember him for. The rest was just MEH [Reply]
