The atmosphere at the Kansas City Chiefs Training Facility feels somewhat oppressive and dreary.
The funeral ended yesterday, and theoretically they should be back on track, returning to training and matches, as the season's journey is still ongoing.
However, things are not that simple.
They are not robots, Felix is not a label, they can't switch back and forth between 0 and 1 like a computer with a return key that resets everything. Emotionally and physically, they still need some time to adjust and breathe.
Moreover, Kelsey punched Li Wei yesterday, and Li Wei used hellish training to ruthlessly discipline the team inside and out.
The soreness of the body, the fatigue of the mind—these negative effects can't be completely washed away overnight.
So, the atmosphere at the Kansas City Chiefs' morning training today is somewhat peculiar.
