GH: In that first seven-on-seven this spring, guys like Mike Hilton and Logan Wilson were saying Vonn hasn’t missed a beat in the defense.
JK: Hasn’t missed a beat.
GH: What’s that mean when you have a guy like that?
JK: A great leader. He’s always been a great guy to be around, on and off the field, but you talk about leadership. I mean he’s the guy first in the building.
