Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has a new deal.
As do team president Mark Donovan and general manager Brett Veach. The Chiefs announced on Monday that they have signed all three to contract extensions.
The Chiefs didn’t announce terms of the deals, but vowed in the announcement that “the leadership team of the Chiefs will remain in place for the long-term future.” NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that Reid’s extension runs through 2029 and makes him the NFL’s highest-paid head coach.
The news arrives months after the Chiefs won their third Super Bowl in five seasons under the leadership group and puts to final rest prior speculation that Reid was considering retiring. Reid confirmed shortly after February’s Super Bowl victory that he intended to return, and now he has a new deal in place to ensure that he does.
