SALT LAKE CITY — Much like when he first arrived in Logan, former Utah State running back Darwin Thompson sounds ready to hit the ground running in Kansas City.
The 5-foot-8, 200-pound back was taken by the Chiefs with the final pick of the 2019 NFL draft’s sixth round Saturday as the draft's 214th overall selection. He quickly took to Twitter to share his enthusiasm with Kansas City fans.
“#GODSPLAN CHIEFS KINGDOM thank you for believing in me!!” he posted on Twitter.
Thompson quickly followed with, “I am coming for ya.”
Thompson made an immediate impact at Utah State in his lone season there in 2018.
