Pats Pulpit on Efton Chism
From the article
Chiz is literally in [wide receivers coach] Todd Downing's office before 6 o'clock every morning, if not 5:30, getting the game plan down to know every position. He's an extremely hard worker. His toughness, his routine, it's really cool to see guys like that take advantage of their opportunities and obviously stepping up in a critical situation is what this league is about.
STACKED’s take
Vrabel's 5:30 a.m. prep routine praise and Hollins injury suggest expanded role ahead.
Chism's consistent preparation and work ethic position him for expanded role moving forward; head coach Mike Vrabel emphasized that Chism arrives before 6 a.m. (often 5:30 a.m.) to study game plans and learn every position with wide receivers coach Todd Downing, establishing a routine that prepared him for critical moments despite not being on field during practice of the game-winning play. Vrabel stated 'Nobody works harder' and praised his toughness and ability to step up in critical situations. A.J. Brown's injury initially thrust Chism onto game-day roster, and Hollins' injury coupled with Chism's Sunday performance could position him for larger workload moving forward.
