Veteran Ravens linebacker vents frustration with the Chiefs training staff

The Baltimore Ravens fell short against the Kansas City Chiefs last Thursday night to kick off the 2024 season. They also lost linebacker Kyle Van Noy to a fractured orbital bone in the game, and he didn’t thank the home team’s training staff for their assistance.

Van Noy vented his frustrations with the Chiefs training staff on the “McCoy & Van Noy” show with his co-host Gerald McCoy.

“To me, I just feel like, as a player, people have that expectation of you being professional,” said Van Noy. “handling business, and in a time of need, I wanted that from them, and I felt like I didn’t get it.”

Van Noy is in his second season with the Ravens and is a two-time Super Bowl champion back from his time with the New England Patriots.

“Because then you get into, like, Did they take their time because I’m a Ravens player? Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah.’ Those are just the thoughts that go into it.” said Van Noy. “I don’t think it was that. But at the same time, I don’t want them to come out and apologize. It is what it is. Like, it’s all good. I don’t need them to come out with a press release and apologize, ‘We take care of our players, blah-blah-blah.’ I experienced it.”

The Chiefs, along with every team in the NFL’s training staff, often assist anyone who is injured during games. The safety of the players is the priority for all involved in the game.
