Chiefs extend deals of Reid, GM, president after Super Bowl win

-

Back-to-back Super Bowl championsh­ips and three titles in a five-year span prompted the Kansas City Chiefs to reward their top brass with contract extensions on Monday. Coach Andy Reid, general manager Brett Veach and club president Mark Donovan received what the club termed as long-term deals, though specifics weren’t announced.

According to NFL.com, Reid got a pact that runs through ’29 and makes him the NFL’s highest-paid coach.

Reid, 66, has been on the job since 2013, compiling a 128-51 regular-season record and a 16-7 playoff mark in Kansas City. He has led the Chiefs to the playoffs in all but one of his 11 seasons.

His overall regular-season record as a head coach is 258-144-1, and he is 2616 in the postseason. Reid is the active NFL leader in coaching wins, ranking fourth all time behind Don Shula (328), George Halas (318) and Bill Belichick (302). Belichick leads the postseason coaching-wins list with 31, with Reid in second.

Veach, 46, took over as the Chiefs’ GM in 2017 after four years in the team’s front office. He previously was on the Eagles’ staff from 2004-12. Donovan, 58, also came to Kansas City after a stint in the Eagles’ front office from 2003-09. He became the Chiefs’ president in January 2011.

Bengals re-sign QB Browning on 2-year deal

The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed exclusive rights free agent quarterbac­k Jake Browning to a two-year contract through the 2025 season, multiple media outlets reported on Tuesday.

Undrafted out of Washington in 2019, Browning spent 2019-21 on the Minnesota Vikings’ practice squad. He then spent time on Cincinnati’s practice squad before filling in for the injured Joe Burrow last season.

Browning, 28, completed 171 of 243 passes (70.4 percent) for 1,936 yards with 12 touchdowns and seven intercepti­ons in nine games (seven starts).
