Chiefs extend GM Brett Veach's contract

Kansas City- Chiefs' general manager Brett Veach extended his contract with the organization.

Arguable one of the most successful general managers in the NFL today, Veach wanted to stay with the organization that has helped him grow as a leader, as well as a GM. Veach has put in time and energy with the Chiefs and it has paid off big time for him.

The Chiefs won the Superbowl this year, which made Veach the second youngest GM to win a Superbowl (42). Veach was apart of the team that kept QB Patrick Mahomes, TE Travis Kelce and DT Chris Jones in a Chiefs' uniform for a long time.

“Brett has had a remarkable run as our General Manager over the past four years, and he certainly deserves this recognition,” Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt said. “His creativity, along with personal connection to our players and staff, has helped build a championship roster. He has had an impressive start to his career as a GM, and I know he’ll continue his aggressive approach that has consistently improved the talent of the Chiefs.”

“I’d like to thank Clark and the entire Hunt family for putting the trust and confidence in me to run our personnel department,” Veach said. “I’m blessed to be surrounded by talented people, including a tremendous staff and a hall of fame head coach. I’m excited and looking forward to continue building upon the foundation we’ve established as a team.”
