Chiefs fullback Anthony Sherman does it all: Here’s how The Sausage was made

The one-liner certainly landed well and elicited grins from one side of the country to the other.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid stood at a post-game podium after a season-opening win in California and offered an affectionate description of his fullback Anthony Sherman as a “sausage with hands” after Sherman, who is built like a small Volkswagen, hauled in a 36-yard touchdown catch as he sprinted past a defender and up the sideline.

Reid grinned, partially at his own lighthearted quip about Sherman’s nickname and mostly because his team had just earned a road win.
