Cole Christiansen, who is only 26 years old, has already won two Super Bowls and has worked with Patrick Mahomes, one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. A resume most NFL pros would be jealous of.
Christiansen is still improving as a player, and he has the good fortune to play with some of the top players in Kansas City. After playing for the Army Black Knights for four seasons, the Virginia native was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Los Angeles Chargers.
He started his career with the Chargers in 2020 and joined the Chiefs in 2022, where he has since thrived. Steve Spagnuolo, the defensive coordinator, provided direction Under him Christiansen has the potential to be one of the NFL’s best linebackers.
Christiansen recently revealed to Reggie Roberts, senior editor of Overtime Heroics, who he believed to be the brightest NFL player he has ever faced in person.

“Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is pretty smart,” said CC.
When Allen was selected by the Bills with the seventh overall choice in the 2018 NFL Draft, it took some by surprise. Although he had a difficult debut season, he has performed admirably in the previous several years.
Allen has amassed 22703 passing yards and 167 touchdowns in six seasons with the Buffalo Bills.
Because of his powerful arm and running abilities, Allen is one of the league’s most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks. It makes sense that linebackers like Christiansen are afraid to face such a bright quarterback.
