He's top three in pass efficiency, completion percentage and touchdown passes. As the Orange County Register observes, however, Kessler doesn't like to talk about his own statistics. Instead, The report provides great example of efforts Kessler has made to avoid sacks in 2015.
Kessler reportedly worked hard this offseason to improve his strength and speed.
