VIDEO: Chiefs' Javier Arenas Takes Kick 100 Yards, Called Back For Holding


I've gotten a few emails from folks looking for this video.

It's Kansas City Chiefs rookie Javier Arenas taking the Atlanta Falcons kick from the goal line to goal line.

Unfortunately, it was called back for a hold.

The hold was on No. 57, which is Justin Cole. It happens at about the 26 second mark near the top of the screen.

(Thanks to KcChiefsfan506 for finding the video)

Even on the routine returns/fair catches

I really thought he looked more seasoned than someone playing their first game. Relaxed, decisive, making one strong move and little gimmick

Or is their punter also their kickoff man...

The Chiefs will see a return to respectability in 2010, emerging as the front runner in the AFC West! ....And I'll quantify that however I choose. Ahem.

someone got bullied

he does look like a player in week 7 and not a player in first preseason game … week 2 should be alittle better

Flowers, Carr, Lewis, & Berry = SCARY SECONDARY

NEW ARROWHEAD = BETTER TEAM ... CHIEFS 2011 AFC WEST CHAMPS

RELEASE THE McCLUSTER BOMB!!

To me, it looks like the WR that Cole was blocking

Tried to twist out of Coles block which brought them both down.

I agree

I think that a lot of people didn’t like this pick, but it looks so far to be a good one.

It's the difference between starting at the 15-20

or the 30-35.

That’s an entire first down or two…

I love my wife, my kids, and the Chiefs. In that order. Except on game days.

I hope he can tear it up all season long!

it will be nice to score a few more points this year from the Special Teams.

The picture is a Chiefs pumpkin, yeah that is right a Chiefs pumpkin.

If I were Javier....

I would’ve taken the ball spiked it on Justin Cole’s back!

by HIT34MAN on Aug 15, 2010 9:33 AM CDT reply actions  

I love this return for many reasons

But mainly because it highlights many of the qualities that make Javy a consistently great returner. Like most return men, he has tremendous short-area quickness, but what sets him apart to me is his ability to be decisive as he reads his blocks and also the tremendous power and strength he exhibits. He’s not strong for a defensive back, he’s just strong period.

Javy isn’t the tallest guy out there, but he’s definitely packed pretty tight, as the saying goes.

I’m looking forward to seeing the impact he’s going to make on special teams and also on defense, where he will only get better and better with each practice and game.

Good point

He’s got less speed than Lawrence, but his vision and patience were clearly noticeable. Also, he seems tough to bring down.

Great to have a consistant return man

Props to the blocking on the returns all night also. Hoffman has the special teams units looking good.

The Chiefs will finish .500 or better in 2010.

This guy had a 42 yard return and a return for a TD

On his first game as a Pro. HIS FIRST GAME AS A PRO!!!

It's just great

to have options in the kick return game. I mean c’mon, last year it took us til mid-season to releaize Jamaal was our only kick returning option. If we can polish up our special teams game with guys like Javier and maybe if Quinten Lawrence can hang on to the ball, we will be among the best returning teams in the league.

Just feels good to know your team is getting better…going in the right direction, rather than the wrong.

oh boy...

Arenas’ return looked so effortless and the kid is pretty fast too. Boy I can tell out kick return game will be pretty good…..you know besides the whole holding thing

Thank god someone found this.

I was at work pulling my hair out wishing i could watch it and then espn and nfl.com had ZERO highlight of it. now the question remains, should i buy an arenas jersey or rundmc?

Refs should have the discretion to wave off a hold/block in the back that had no effect on the play whatsoever.
