Chiefs hire Price as receivers coach By ADAM TEICHER The Kansas City Star
MOBILE, Ala. | The Chiefs finalized their coaching staff Tuesday by hiring Texas-El Paso offensive coordinator Eric Price to work with wide receivers.
Herm Edwards’ first choice as receivers coach was former UCLA coach Karl Dorrell, but Dorrell accepted a position with the Miami Dolphins instead.
Price, who was on Edwards’ staff with the New York Jets, interviewed to be the Chiefs’ offensive coordinator. That job went instead to Chan Gailey.
The other new offensive coaches are Bob Bicknell (offensive line) and Curtis Modkins (running backs).
“It worked out very well for us,” Edwards said. “Eric Price is a good young coach. I’ve been with him before and I know who he is. He’ll be a coordinator somewhere someday.
“This is a good teaching staff and they will all fit together. They have the ability to coach the way the Chiefs will play football.”
