Treehugger Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4821761&campaign=rss&source=ESPNHeadlines Updated: January 13, 2010, 11:34 AM ET Crennel reunites with Weis, Pioli in KC As expected, the Kansas City Chiefs on Wednesday officially hired Romeo Crennel to be their new defensive coordinator. Crennel, who replaces Clancy Pendergast, reunites with general manager Scott Pioli and offensive coordinator Charlie Weis, who all worked together in New England during their Super Bowl runs. Weis was hired by Kansas City last week following his ouster as Notre Dame's coach. The Chiefs informed Pendergast early Wednesday that they would be terminating his contract one year after hiring him from Arizona, sources close to the situation told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. Potential landing spots for Pendergast could include Atlanta, which did not renew the contract of defensive backs coach Emmitt Thomas. Crennel will not start work for Kansas City for a couple of weeks because of a prior commitment -- he'll be the head coach of the East Team in the East-West college football all-star game on Jan. 23 in Orlando, Fla. Crennel coached the Browns for four seasons before being fired after the 2008 season. He was 24-40 in Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
