The trio of Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, general manager Brett Veach and team president Mark Donovan have presided over the most successful era in franchise history. The trio will now remain intact for years to come.
The Chiefs on Monday night announced contract extensions with Reid, Veach and Donovan, though terms of the deals were not disclosed.
“Mark, Brett and Andy have achieved historic success together, and we are thrilled that they will continue in their roles for many years to come,” Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt said in a statement. “Individually, Mark, Brett and Andy represent the best in the National Football League at their respective positions, and together they make up one of the finest leadership teams in all of professional sports.
“They have been tremendous leaders for this organization on and off the field and we look forward to their continued success in the years ahead.”
Reid joined the Chiefs in 2013 and has led the team to three Super Bowl championships in the past five seasons. The Chiefs have played in five straight AFC championship games and won the AFC West eight years in a row.
“I’m incredibly grateful to Clark and the entire Hunt family for giving me the opportunity to lead this historic franchise,” Reid said. “Over the last 11 years, Tammy and I have enjoyed calling Kansas City our home.
“On the field there have been so many people that have contributed to our success and Super Bowls, and I’m grateful to the players, coaches and staff that have all invested their time into this process.”
Veach has been the team’s GM since 2017. Prior to that he spent four seasons in the team’s personnel department. Before coming to Kansas City, Veach worked for Reid when he was coach of the Eagles.
“I am blessed to work alongside very talented people and am proud of the work we’ve done to bring three Super Bowls to Kansas City,” Veach said. “I am excited to continue my career in a city that’s embraced me and my family the way it has and look forward to more opportunities to bring more championships to Chiefs Kingdom.”
Donovan joined the Chiefs in 2009 and became team president in 2011.
“It’s a privilege to help lead this organization’s business operations, and I want to thank Clark and the entire Hunt family for their continued support and trust in the work that we’re doing off the field and in the community,” Donovan said.
