Summary

Ben Niemann played at Iowa from 2014 to 2017 as a Linebacker for the Hawkeyes. He saw immediate action his freshman year on special teams where he paved his way into the starting lineup along side Josey Jewell and Bo Bower. Undrafted in the 2018 NFL Draft, Ben got a shot with the Kansas City Chiefs and hasn't looked back since. Taking a similar path in the NFL, Ben just completed his 2nd season with Kansas City ranking as one of the best special teams players in the league in both seasons. Oh ya, they also just won the Super Bowl. Ben joins the show to talk about what it's like to play with Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Tyreek Hill, and others. He discusses what it was like to grow up with a busy college football coach for a dad, have his High School chanting his name at a pep rally, and much more.
