Former Georgia cornerback Derion Kendrick went from one championship team to another when he was selected in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL draft by the Los Angeles Rams.
The Defensive MVP of the Capital One Orange Bowl, Kendrick is participating in training camp with his new team this week.
During a recent practice session, Kendrick got beat on a play. What followed was an awesome teaching moment between he and his new head coach Sean McVay.
McVay spoke to Kendrick on the technique, teaching him how he could’ve played the ball and used his strengths to break up the pass.

Love this teaching moment between Sean McVay and Derion Kendrick
