NFL Combine 2017: Andy Reid, John Dorsey set to speak
By Matt Conner
The Kansas City Chiefs general manager John Dorsey and head coach Andy Reid will both take questions from reporters during the 2017 NFL Combine.
The complete list of media interviews has been announced for the upcoming 2017 NFL Combine in Indianapolis and both general manager John Dorsey and head coach Andy Reid will be speaking to the press and taking questions during the event. Reid is scheduled to speak first for 15 minutes on Wednesday, March 1 at 2:15 p.m. C.T. Dorsey will speak at 11:00 a.m. C.T. the following day, on Thursday, March 2.
It will be interesting to hear how Reid and Dorsey answer a number of specific questions that will undoubtedly be asked, beginning with the front office’s progress on a long-term deal with Eric Berry. The safety has demanded an extension versus a franchise tag, which he has threatened to refuse to play under.
Reporters will also likely ask both men about their own lack of contract extensions as both Dorsey and Reid are nearing the end of their first contracts with the Chiefs. Clark Hunt has expressed an interest to keep the current leadership in place, so it’s safe to assume some movement for at least Reid in the coming months.
The Combine will also give us a good early look at Chris Ballard, the new general manager of the Indianapolis Colts and former executive of the Chiefs.
The NFL Combine begins Tuesday, February 28 with the arrival of offensive linemen, running backs and special teams performers.
