Starting right guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif graduated from McGill University in Montreal, where he earned his medical doctorate.
The newest graduate from the Faculty of Medicine at McGill took to Twitter to proudly announce the occasion with a photo of him wearing a jersey over his gown with “DR Duvernay-Tardif” across his back.
“This is it!” Duvernay-Tardif tweeted in excitement. “Today I become a doctor!”
This is it! Today I become a doctor! It also marks the beginning of a great new adventure for all 2018 graduates of @mcgillu Faculty of Medicine. #LDTMD #graduation #passion #nfl #chiefs pic.twitter.com/j4oD1BCuXJ

The Chiefs selected Duvernay-Tardif in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft with a full understanding he was in a third year of medical school. I think if this football thing doesn’t pan out he’ll be just fine. Not a bad fallback.
