This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke with Emmy Award-winning actor and lifelong Kansas City Chiefs fan Eric Stonestreet.
In his interview with Easton Jr., Stonestreet, who stars in the new Coors Light campaign 'Mahomeses' alongside Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, revealed the detailed work ethic of his friend and the Chiefs' general manager, Brett Veach.
"Well, if you think you've never seen Brett (Veach) smile before, you should have seen him this whole offseason. He was in a different mode than I've ever seen him before, and I mean that in the most complimentary, positive way," said Stonestreet. "He does not take a minute off of his job. There is not a minute that goes by without Brett thinking of how he can make this team better for the Chiefs, for Clark Hunt, and for Kansas City."
Veach began his tenure with the Chiefs in 2013 as a Pro and college personnel analyst, and he was promoted to general manager in 2017. The three-time Super Bowl champion focuses on the small details in his work and has earned respect around the league.
"As I've gotten to know him, what I've realized about him is some people say, 'Don't sweat the small stuff. 'I've always been a person that's like, you do have to sweat the small stuff. The small stuff is where it all is. Now, you may not want to get mired in life's small stuff, but paying attention to everything is important," said Stonestreet. "Brett (Veach), I can tell you, pays attention to every single ounce of every single business of Kansas City football. What's blown my mind is how he's paying attention to players' birthdays and making sure social media wishes them a happy birthday. He's paying attention to who the number-one college running back is. He's paying attention to who the best undrafted right tackle is; it's across the board."
