(espn/ap) The Kansas City Chiefs have hired Steve Spagnuolo as their defensive coordinator, moving swiftly to replace Bob Sutton after his unit’s dismal performance against the Patriots in the AFC title game.
Spagnuolo began his coaching career as Chiefs coach Andy Reid’s assistant in Philadelphia, where he worked with several position groups over the course of eight seasons. He left to become the Giants’ defensive coordinator, and has held similar roles with the Saints and Ravens.
He was also the Head Coach of the St. Louis Rams for 3 seasons and was the Giants’ interim coach during the 2017 season.
