PHOENIX, Ariz. — Kansas City Chiefs 2022 first round draft pick Trent McDuffie talked with KSHB 41 anchor Dia Wall at Super Bowl LVII.
Here’s their conversation from opening night in Phoenix.
Wall: Super Bowl 57 as a rookie man, how does it feel?
McDuffie: It’s special, especially being a rookie understanding there are vets who haven’t. You really just got to relish in this moment. They don't come that often.
Wall: You had my favorite play of the AFC Championship game. You probably already know where I'm going — third down, the tipped pass. Talk me through that play.
McDuffie: Honestly, when I'm on that field, at the end of the day it’s like — see ball, get ball. It’s like we're back there in the backyard, like wherever the ball is, I've trained myself to be there and be around the ball. I was just around the ball on that play, that's why I made it to be honest.
Wall: How do you feel about Chiefs Kingdom? Because I can definitely tell you how they feel about you.
McDuffie: I was going to say, I can barely hear you. We’ve got them screaming in the background. It’s been amazing to be a part of a culture like this, a lot of fun.
Wall: The Chiefs provide so much hope and inspiration and energy in the city. What would it mean to you to bring a Lombardi trophy back to KC?
McDuffie: Honestly, all these fans just smile. At the end of the day, I think that's one of the best things you can do. Smile. Enjoy people's company, bring positivity, so I know that's what's gonna make the whole city happy. So we got to do it.
