Arrowhead Pride on Andrew Armstrong
Article7 winners and 4 losers from the Chiefs’ first preseason game
From the article
Sure, he had that 17-yard catch on his only target of the afternoon. But his blocking stood out most. A wide receiver like Armstrong, who is lower on the depth chart, has to make his mark on special teams and as a blocker. The Chiefs could use a big-bodied receiver that can serve up pancakes in the running game and screen game; Armstrong is 6 feet 4 inches tall and 210 pounds. He might have taken a big step towards winning a job on Saturday.

Armstrong's blocking stood out; 6'4" frame could win roster spot in run-game role.
Wide receiver Andrew Armstrong, lower on the depth chart, made his mark primarily through blocking rather than receiving production (1 target, 17-yard catch). At 6'4", 210 pounds, Armstrong has the frame to serve as a big-bodied receiver capable of pancake blocks in the running and screen game—a role the Chiefs need. His blocking performance may have taken a significant step toward winning a roster spot.
