GARY GIBBS TO KANSAS CITY?

There’s talk in league circles that the Kansas City Chiefs soon will be adding former Saints defensive coordinator Gary Gibbs to coach Todd Haley’s staff. Per a league source, Gibbs will serve either as the defensive coordinator or linebackers coach. Gibbs worked exclusively at the college level before 2002. He spent nineteen years at Oklahoma, and served as the head coach from 1989 through 1994. After five years out of the game, he spent a season at Georgia and a season at LSU before landing in Dallas. In his second year with the Cowboys, Bill Parcells arrived, and the two men worked four years there together. Parcells, if you haven’t heard, is the father-in-law of Chiefs G.M. Scott Pioli. Gibbs’ tenure in Texas overlapped with Haley in 2004 and 2005. Gibbs then went to New Orleans as a member of Sean Payton’s staff. Payton fired Gibbs after the 2008 season.
