Dacus Making D1 Proud


D1 Combine athlete Weston Dacus is beating all odds with the Kansas City Chiefs. Dacus, who played college ball at the University of Arkansas, wasn’t drafted in the 2008 NFL Draft. Dacus wasn’t even signed shortly after the draft finished. He was one of 40 invited to attend the Chiefs rookie camp as a tryout prior to training camp. He was the only player to sign a contract out of that camp. He then went to training camp and beat the odds again and landed on the eight-man practice squad as a rookie free agent. After three games on the practice squad, Dacus was promoted to the 53-man roster where he has two tackles in two games on special teams. Way to go Weston! Thanks for making D1 proud!
