After watching Andy Reid lead Kansas City to three playoff appearances during his first four years with the team, the Chiefs' front office has decided they'd like him to stick around a little bit longer.

The team announced Thursday that Reid has signed an extension, meaning he'll be in Kansas City for the foreseeable future. One person who won't be around, though, is general manager John Dorsey.

Less than 45 minutes after the team announced Reid's extension, the Chiefs surprisingly announced that Dorsey had been let go. Like Reid, Dorsey had a contract that was set to expire after the 2017 season.

"I notified John that we would not be extending his contract beyond the 2017 season, and after consideration, we felt it was in his best interests and the best interests of the team to part ways now," Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt said in a statement. "This decision, while a difficult one, allows John to pursue other opportunities as we continue our preparations for the upcoming season and the seasons to come."

Brett Veach was named the seventh general manager in Kansas City Chiefs history on July 10, 2017. Veach enters his second season as an NFL general manager and his 12th year in the National Football League. He reports directly to Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt on all player personnel matters. Prior to being elevated, he served as the Chiefs Co-Director of Player Personnel for two seasons. At 40 years old, Veach remains the youngest general manager in the NFL.
