Brett Veach

[SleeperChiefs] “It was a major injury, and he’s attacking it like you could imagine, but I think what you’re going to get is what you get every single year from Patrick Mahomes—and that’s the best version of himself.”

Who are the coaches, GMs, and owners with a 100% approval rating among their fanbases? — Brett Veach and Andy Reid have delivered more than any Chiefs fan would have ever thought possible. Literally beyond anybody in KC's wildest expectations. Now, after one down year, there is a pretty vocal part of the fanbase that believes both are washed and it is time to move on (or at least, that both should be on the hot seat). It's not a majority or anything, but they no longer have the 100% approval rating they would have had as recently as 2023 or 2024. That got me thinking - who are the

[Pelissero] Chiefs Trade Is Reminiscent of Tyreek’s 2022 Trade: Hill was in his prime, but KC traded him to Miami for picks plus cash and cap flexibility that helped them build another Super Bowl winner. Brett Veach going back to the playbook.

[SleeperChiefs] Chiefs GM Brett Veach on the value of this years draft picks. “Our second round pick would kinda be the talent level we’ve been picking for the 1st round for the last ten years.” Brett added “We spend just as much time as on rounds 5,6 and 7 as we do on 1 and 2.”

Former Chiefs DE Mike Danna wrote a goodbye post to the Chiefs and Kansas City. “Thank you from the bottom of my heart. The memories, the rings, the bonds, they last forever.”

[Chiefs] GM Brett Veach Speaks to the Media at the NFL Scouting Combine — Veach mentions the need to establish an explosive running game in 2026 when asked about areas he’s looking to address.

[Goldman] Andy Reid says that Travis Kelce will play in Week 18 and that he'll likely hold RG Trey Smith out this week because of his ankle injury. — > Reid on picking higher in the 2026 NFL Draft: "With Brett (Veach) and his crew doing it. That part is exciting to see and what takes place. It's something to look forward to. It's not where you want to be, but it is where we are." >Reid says QB Patrick Mahomes is around, in the building, doing his rehab: "He's really attacked that and will continue to do that."

Blast from the past: A laundry list of failures by Brett Veach and our FO regarding the current state of our offense — Here's an old post about some of the draft misses that have gotten us in this hole. Add in the desire to force Kingsley into the starting rotation instead of taking another draft loss. We've had abysmal early-round drafting for a while. Here's the other side of this, the players that have been good draft picks, like L'Jarius Sneed, couldn't be retained due to cap restraints. And multiple free agent signings that have worked, like Honeybadger and Justin Reid, had to be moved on from. We've reta

Official r/NFL Week 15 Power Rankings — Welcome to week 15 of the 2025 r/NFL power rankings, the most biased-unbiased source for power rankings on the web. Following an AFC East battle, the Rams reclaim their throne. The Broncos and Texans are peaking at the right time with two more strong wins, but nobody jumped higher than the Ravens. The biggest drop came from the Chiefs (-7),with a playoff elimination adding insult to injury. The Patriots drop 21 and another three spots, while the Panthers are rightfully punished for losing to the

[Kay Adams] Tyrann Mathieu back to the Chiefs??? HE'S ALL FOR IT. Brett Veach on line 1.

Chiefs' draft failures to bring Jones & Kelce successors — Brett Veach has been GM for 7 years. He inherited Chris Jones & Travis Kelce from John Dorsey, his predecessor. For these 7 years, Veach had so many 1st and 2nd round picks but just never obtained successors for Jones & Kelce while they are aging to 31 and 36, respectively. A successful successor doesn’t have to be 100% as powerful like Jones & Kelce because they are 100% going into HOF. 95 & 87 are both unicorns and once in a lifetime level. However, a successor must be at least a high quali

[Derrick] Chiefs OC Matt Nagy says he hasn’t considered who will start at left tackle when Josh Simmons returns — Thought I’d share this, although pretty sure it means next to nothing and is just being nice. He’s not gonna flat out say Moore will be benched in favor of Simmons, but unless Simmons shows major regression, I doubt it’ll be much compet

[Jones] Cincinnati has released Mike Pennel 👀 — Releasing this guy in favor of making room for Derrick Nnadi is one of the dumbest moves Brett Veach has made up to this point in his illustrious career as GM!! Bring him back now!!!

Grateful to be a fan of this team. — I'm grateful for Andy Reid. Patrick Mahomes. Brett Veach. Spags. Toub. I love how they handle defeat. They got back to work. They owned it. Our best ever QB puts all the blame on himself. They don't turn on each other. Have each other's backs to a fault. I love this football team...... except Butker. He's still on notice lol

Make it make sense. . . — Beat the number 1 ranked team convincingly as the 7th ranked team. They move down 1 spot from the loss. . . Chiefs move down 2 spots. I know these are subjective and tha5, in theory teams below may also have convincing wins. Butnif knicking if the former nukber 1 doesnt get you a bump, and instead youre moved down, then the rules are made up and the points dont matter.

[Sweeney] The Chiefs remain mum on Josh Simmons' status. Head coach Andy Reid said GM Brett Veach is handling the situation and is unwilling to say anything else.

Rookie Ashton Gillotte aims to be part of solution vs. Giants — [Non-paywall link](https://archive.is/0QoDB) Key sections: >Through two games, the Kansas City Chiefs’ pass rush has been inconsistent at best. And while the lack of pressure is a concern, it’s just one of several issues that have led to two straight losses to start the season. >Recognizing the pass rush could be improved this past offseason, Chiefs general manager Brett Veach spent two of his three Day 2 draft picks on defensive linemen with pass-rush upside. Veach selected defensive tackle

The Eagles and Chiefs matchup is the first time an AFC and NFC team has played each other for five consecutive seasons since the merger — Nick Sirianni has faced the Chiefs in every single year of his career. This is also the most times cross conference teams have met in a row. Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts are the only QBs in history to win a Super Bowl against each other. Chiefs HC Andy Reid was a long time Eagles HC that couldn’t get over the hump until he got to Kansas City. The Eagles couldn’t get over the hump until they hired Kansas City OC and Andy Reid subordinate Doug Pederson. Brett Veach’s last job before gett

[Matt Derrick] Chiefs GM Brett Veach explains why the club decided to move on from veteran Mike Pennel, and how he's trying to rebuild the team's defensive tackle group on the fly.

I Totally Called That: What "hunch" do you have about the 2025 team? — Interested in hearing your gut-feeling about this season... good or bad. Things that might be a little "in the weeds." My general hunch is that a Renaissance is set-up to happen, and a lot of overdue flowers will be given. HUNCH #1: The Chiefs didn't just add players to the offense, they added (and welcomed back) explosive players. Defenses will not be able to cover everyone (not even the elite ones), so one or two different guys each week will have monster games (100+ yds, 1+ TD). Which wi

Chiefs Radio — Is there an app or another way to listen to Chiefs' radio game calls live, for people who live way out of market (in the U.S.)?

Will Brett Veach ever spend big at WR again in Mahomes era? — I say this cause Rashee Rice has 2 more years on his rookie deal and if he goes for 1,000+ yards and near 10 or more TD’s over these next 2 years to become a house hold top WR in the league like we all expect, his price tag for his next contract will only sky rocket. Veach showed boldness and no hesitation showing Tyreek Hill the door and trading him when he wanted his extension. But that time felt different as Mahomes still had prime Travis Kelce for 2022-23 at least before his decline began la

[Sweeney] Takeaways from Day 2 of Mandatory OTAs: Brashard Smith impresses, Worthy, Hollywood, and Gray catch TDs from Pat, and Moore, Taylor, Wiley were limited — [Source](https://x.com/pgsween/status/1935448687175450890) Text from the linked Kelce article about his podium appearance: On Wednesday, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce met with local reporters for the first time since his decision to return to the league for his 13th season. Kelce’s current contract runs through the 2025 season, which has long been perceived as a logical end point. However, the 35-year-old held back from confirming the grand finale. “I got one year on this contrac

[OC] The GM Cycle: A Look at the Past and Present of Hiring General Managers — As teams begin looking forward to the 2025 offseason, it's worth taking a look backward to observe the behaviors of teams when it comes to decision-making in arguably the most important chair on the team: the general manager.

[Breer] Statement from Chiefs GM Brett Veach on Chris Jones

Brett Veach on potentially trading Chris Jones: “I think the best resolution would be for him to end his career as a Chief and get that financial security…hopefully, we get this resolved, but we have no intentions of making a trade.” — >“He’s a great player, and he wants a big contract,” Veach said. “He deserves a big contract, and I don’t think there’s any surprises in that regard. But there’s just some hurdles we have to work through in regards to how we can keep this thing going for the short- and long-term. But we’ve never wavered on, ‘This is a guy that we want to exhaust all of our efforts to get done,’ because that’s how much we think of him.” >Jones is due to make $19.5 million in 2023, the final year of his current c

[Sports Illustrated] How Brett Veach and the Chiefs front office planned early to build their team around the Franchise QB — One of the most interesting tidbits from this article talks about the Chiefs decisionmaking surrounding the Tyreek Hill trade, particularly a philosophy of "Well we need to build through the draft now, and we won't hit on every pick, but we can take more swings if we use a lot of picks." "...when the Jets offered the 10th pick straight up for Hill, the Chiefs balked and asked for a package based on volume (rather than quality) picks, to try to avoid being the team that got Troy Williamson for R

If you were Brett Veach, would you sacrifice your draft capital to win now or take the long-term approach if it meant a few down years? — The Chiefs are in a very interesting spot.
