The Kansas City Chiefs announced today that General Manager Scott Pioli and Head Coach Romeo Crennel will be relieved of their duties, effective immediately. One person was hired to replace both men, as Ryan Thomas was named the new GM and Head Coach of the franchise.
"It is an honour to accept this position today," said Thomas at his news conference. "This team has a long and storied history. Fans here are hungry for a Superbowl, something they haven't seen since 1970. Today marks the beginning of what we feel is the blueprint to bring this franchise back into Superbowl contention. I have a plan, some decisions may be hard to accept, some may not. But all decisions will be made with the ultimate goal of winning the Lombardi Trophy in mind."
When asked if he had any plans for roster changes, particularly in the area of Quarterback, Thomas replied "I will look at all positions on the team. I feel there are some very good players here, and with some tweaking, this team will be good very soon. I am not going to discuss particulars with regards to positions and/or players at the moment."
Thomas went on the say the team will continue running a base 3-4 defense and that no free agents will be brought in at the moment. He wants to evaluate the current roster first. He is excited to get the new season started.
