Chiefs GM Brett Veach keeps KC humming

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs coach Andy Reid first met Brett Veach after he’d been recommended for an internship with his Philadelphia Eagles.

One of Veach’s many tasks? Running out for the occasional lunch order.

Cheeseburgers were common.

All these years later, Veach is still delivering the goods for Reid, only now as the general manager of a Chiefs franchise that is chasing an unprecedented third consecutive Super Bowl title. Veach is the one who Reid freely credits with rebuilding the roster each year, and whose collection of players will face the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night in New Orleans.

Good read. As co-director of player personnel, Veach was the one that insisted the team draft Patrick Mahomes.

Veach credits his success to the leadership of Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt.

It starts at the top and filters down. Always.
