Kansas City Chiefs promote Brett Veach to general manager
Sunday 16 July 2017 13:17, UK
The Kansas City Chiefs have promoted co-director of player personnel Brett Veach to general manager.
The appointment was announced Monday, about two weeks after Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt surprisingly fired John Dorsey, their GM of the past four years. Head coach Andy Reid's contract was extended that same day.
Veach has begun his fifth season with the Chiefs, having spent his first two years with the team as a pro and college personnel analyst.
He started his career in the NFL in Philadelphia, with three seasons as the assistant to Reid and three more as a scout for the Eagles.
The Chiefs will introduce Veach at a July 24 news conference.
