Chiefs hire Gailey as offensive coordinator
By ADAM TEICHER The Kansas City Star
Chan Gailey was hired today as the Chiefs’ offensive coordinator.
Gailey, 56, is a veteran coordinator, having served in that capacity in the NFL with Denver, Pittsburgh and Miami. He also has been head coach for the Cowboys and Birmingham in the World League and in college for Troy State, Samford and Georgia Tech. He was fired this past fall after six seasons at Georgia Tech.
Chiefs coach Herm Edwards was immediately unavailable for comment.
Other candidates for the position included UTEP offensive coordinator Eric Price, former New York Giants coach Jim Fassel and Jacksonville quarterbacks coach Mike Shula.
Gailey will replace Mike Solari, who was fired after the Chiefs had one of their worst offensive seasons in team history. __________________
