Interview with Chiefs Legend & 6x Pro Bowler Tamba Hali!
We were pumped to welcome in 6x Pro Bowler and 2x Second-Team All-Pro Tamba Hali to the show! Tamba played 12 seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs in which he accumulated nearly 600 tackles and had 89.5 sacks which is second all-time in Kansas City Chiefs history.
David Mendelson (@DMendy02) talks to him about his time at Penn State, the draft process, and his masterful career with Kansas City. Not just that, but also helping Justin Houston and many other pass rushers up their sack totals using his unique hands and footwork techniques, and of course his transition into music.
If you're a fan of the Kansas City Chiefs or just a fan of football in general, you're not going to want to miss this interview!
