Duvernay-Tardiff participated in a series of personal interviews (see other text) as part of his affiliation with Quebec dairy producers for advertising advertising, but it is impossible not to discuss football with him.
After all, the man who entered the NFL in 2014 quickly settled into his second season as a starter. From then on, when he was healthy, it was the role he played until he conquered the chiefs in the Super Bowl in February 2020.
If he does not hide that his misfortune has affected him in the last few weeks, he still believes he has achieved his goal, he put a cross in the 2020 season to fight the pandemic first. CHSLD.
“I’m a competitor by birth, so it instantly destroyed me that I could not be a starter, but was able to regain a place in the teams that performed the best in the NFL, which is big.” This year, I really celebrated the last day of the harvest because I thought to myself: I did. That is my first goal, ”he said Journal.
Difficult conditions
The friendly offensive lineman, however, kept his eyes open when he arrived at Chiefs Camp in late July.
“It’s very humiliating because I know a good camp so far. Even our general manager (Brett Weach) came to me to say how impressed he was that I came back so strong after more than a year off the field,” he said.
Duvernay-Tordiff was so caught up in the idea of initially finding his guard post on the right that he knew the slope would be steep to get there.
“People sometimes take it lightly, but getting a place on the team is already very difficult. I do not have access to gyms. I worked long hours in CHSLDs and tried to keep the physical shape of a professional athlete who usually benefits from the medical team to optimize his performance. For me, being with the team is still big Success. “
Get ready to play
Today, the doctor said he had recovered 100% from his injury and was ready to jump on the field.

“All I know is that the football season is long and you all have to contribute,” he said wisely.
For now, Rookie Trey Smith occupies his position on the offensive line, the fact that Cubeser is accepted as a good soldier.
“Here [dimanche], I’m not in uniform, but I spent time in the game providing information and advice to the tray. I will try to help him as much as possible. The goal is to take on the role given to me and return to the position I was in before I was injured. I have to show that I can be a go-to option for a proper guard post. ”
Quebec Dairy New Ambassador
Already Laurent Duvernay-Tordiff, Chief Player, but also a Medical Graduate, CHSLD Worker, Speaker and Head of a Foundation in his name. As his life was not full enough, the role of a representative of the Producers de Light du Quebec was now coming to fill his rare free time.
Not far from the adventure, Duvernay-Tordiff teamed up with dairy producers for the next three years. Already, he has filmed three humorous commercials featuring his athlete, student, and “little guy from the countryside.”
“I have my opinion on the campaign. The idea of different angles in my life, the little man in the countryside brought back the idea by meeting real producers on their farm, I found that it produced a nice balance and it was in my image. I loved the idea of promoting producers with a healthy product called milk. It’s important to be consistent with who I am, ”the man explained with a thousand and one challenges.

“With the epidemic, we realized how fragile we were when it came to food imports. Milk is a 100% local product everywhere in Quebec. It’s worth having this resource coming from farms on a human scale. This kind of farming speaks to me,” he said.
