The Kansas City Chiefs announced two new coaching hires on Monday. The team is bringing back Matt House as a senior defensive assistant and Chris Orr as their defensive quality control coach.
Orr was a former Wisconsin Badgers standout player with ties to current Chiefs linebacker Leo Chenal. He played one season with the Carolina Panthers in 2020 before joining Wisconsin’s staff as the director of player development in 2021. The well-traveled House has experience coaching for the Rams, Panthers, and Buffalo Bills at the start of his career.
