What Neal learned from Kam Chancellor?

July 29, 2016

Falcons first-round pick Keanu Neal is slated to start at strong safety.

He recently worked out with Seattle Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor over the break. He said that he was able to get pointers on how to attack certain situations on the field.

“I learned about body control and being able to control my energy and physicality,” Neal said. “Being overly aggressive can hurt you at times. So I want to control that and be in a power position.”
