The Kansas City Chiefs have announced the hiring of Chan Gailey as their new offensive coordinator.

“Wherever he’s coached, he has designed dynamic offenses to take full advantage of his players’ skills,” Chiefs coach Herm Edwards said. “He understands how to orchestrate a balanced offensive plan. He’s going to be a good fit for our philosophy and our football team.”

Gailey was fired in 2007 after spending six seasons as the head coach of Georgia Tech. He was the head coach of the Cowboys in 1998 and 1999, and he has served as offensive coordinator of the Dolphins, Steelers and Broncos.

Edwards fired offensive coordinator Mike Solari after a 2007 season in which the Chiefs’ offense ranked near the bottom of the league in most statistical categories.
