Chidobe Awuzie Falls in Blitzchamps II Finals to Chiefs Linebacker Drue Tranquill

The Bengals cornerback still won some solid cash for his charity of choice.

CINCINNATI — Chidobe Awuzie got to the finals but ultimately fell short in his pursuit of back-to-back Blitzchamps chess titles. The Bengals cornerback lost to Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Drue Tranquill in the event's final round.

It marks another pseudo-win for the Chiefs in the NFL's best rivalry as Tranquill won 1.5-0.5 to dethrone Awuzie, the 2022 champion. 

The effort earned Awuzie $20,000 for his Awuzie Kick Step Foundation

Awuzie took out the likes of Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray and NFL legend Larry Fitzgerald on his way to the finals.
