KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Steve Spagnuolo knows how good an unexpected laugh can be for his players.
Throughout last season, the Kansas City Chiefs' longtime defensive coordinator would, on occasion, have Louie Addazio, the unit's quality control assistant, put together a highlight package of old clips of Chiefs position coaches' playing days -- each one a treat for the players to watch. Players laughed when they saw grainy footage of defensive line coach Joe Cullen as a nose tackle or linebackers coach Brendan Daly as a tight end.
One of the most memorable moments, linebacker Leo Chenal said, was when it was time for Addazio to showcase Spagnuolo's film.
