K-State's Giddens partners with local restaurant for meet and greet

MANHATTAN (KSNT) - K-State running back DJ Giddens is stepping out of his comfort zone on and off the field.

Giddens, a Junction City native, is being challenged by his coached to be a leader despite his quiet nature.

"A lot of it [is] leading by example," Giddens told 27 News. "I've been trying to pull guys to the side, one-on-one. I'm not the type to be in front of everybody and just be yelling but pull people to the side, talk to people."

He's expanding his social horizons off the field, too.
