Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Anthony Hitchens spoke to the media via Zoom conference call on Thursday — after what was the team’s first week of organized team activities (OTAs). Hitchens, who is officially listed at 6 feet and 235 pounds, looked noticeably slimmer, something he explained had been his intention during this offseason.
“I’m trying something different, to be honest,” said Hitchens. “I am getting a little more lean. I’m going to try to lean out a little more spring ball and then as camp comes and as the season comes, I can put the bulk and the muscle and getting that extra lift in, so yeah, I’m doing more lean.
