Marvin Allen is leaving the Chiefs for the Bills to occupy to same Director of College Scouting spot under Brandon Beane.
The Kansas City Chiefs continue to endure a fairly long string of losses throughout this offseason from the team’s front office. Some have happened via the team’s own decision as they’ve decided to move on. Others have been due to teams poaching their staff to bolster their own front offices. The latest is the latter as the Buffalo Bills have hired away the Chiefs Director of College Scouting, Marvin Allen, for the same exact same role under new general manager Brandon Beane.
Allen has been the team’s Director of College Scouting since John Dorsey was hired in 2013. Before that he was a regional and national scout for the Atlanta Falcons for years and was an area scout for the New England Patriots for approximately 15 years before that.
"“Marvin started in the 90’s. He’s most recently been a college (scouting) director so he’s sat in that seat,” Beane said. “He’s going to be a great resource not only for me, but for all our college scouts.”"
John Dorsey also lost Kyle Childress to be the Indianapolis Colts’ new scouting director under new GM Chris Ballard, both losses from KC to Indy. The Chiefs also recently replaced their Director of Pro Scouting, Will Lewis, with a new addition from the Green Bay Packers, Tim Terry.
