Connor Embree - 1st Year WR Coach
Kid better button shit up.



Quote:
Connor Embree returns for his fifth season with the Chiefs and enters the 2023 season as the team's wide receivers coach after spending two seasons as an offensive quality control coach (2021-22) and two seasons as a defensive assistant (2019-20).

Embree again worked closely with the wide receiver corps in 2022 as an offensive quality control coach assisting an offense that led the league in receiving yards (5,250), touchdowns (41) passing first downs (272), receptions of 25+ yards (49) and points per game (29.2). Embree helped develop a new group of veteran receivers (JuJu Smith-Schuster, Kadarius Toney, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Justin Watson) who accounted for over 20 percent of the Chiefs receiving touchdowns. Smith-Schuster led the team's wide receiver group with 78 receptions for 933 yards and three trips to the endzone. Fifth-year receiver Valdes-Scantling had two regular season touchdowns and a career-high two postseason touchdowns. He stepped up big as the team battled through injuries in the AFC Championship Game, with 116 yards receiving off six receptions, three catches of 25+ yards and one touchdown en route to the team's Super Bowl LVII win.

In 2021, Embree worked primarily with the wide receivers group. WR Tyreek Hill recorded a career high 111 receptions for 1,239 yards en route to his sixth Pro Bowl nomination. WR Mecole Hardman ranked third on the team, recording career highs in catches (59) and yards (693).

In 2020, Embree primarily worked with the defensive backs who featured AP All-Pro S Tyrann Mathieu who led all safeties in the NFL with six interceptions and rookie CB L'Jarius Sneed who showed a lot of potential in the nine games he saw action (six starts). He snagged three interceptions, 2.0 sacks (-19.0 yards) and seven passes defensed.

In his first season with the Chiefs (2019), Embree primarily worked with a linebacking group that accounted for 5.5 sacks and 275 tackles in his role as a defensive assistant. LB Anthony Hitchens led the team in tackles with 88 and was responsible for 2.0 of the unit's 5.5 sacks.

Before jumping to the professional ranks, he spent two seasons on Coach David Beaty's staff at the University of Kansas as a graduate assistant where he gained experience working with the offense and special teams.

He also spent time in the high school ranks as the offensive coordinator at Blue Valley West High School and as the wide receivers coach at Fairview High School.

Embree played wide receiver for the Kansas Jayhawks (2011-13). He also spent one season at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (2010).

Education: University of Kansas (B.S. 2013). Born: Superior, Colorado. Family:Wife - Alex.

Andy took over when they simplified the playbook. Just a terrible position for Connor to be in. His WR's outside of Rice just aren't good

MVS was serviceable last year, this year he sets us back.

Watson had some fantastic plays and was a steady contributor last year. This year he’s a ghost.

Skyy was bad and stayed bad.

He looks like Colin Cowherd’s assistant on The Herd.

Go back to the OP video and listen to Palmer quoting Veach at the trade deadline. What can you even say about that level of denial by that point in the season? It remains bizarre.

They overachieved last season, and I do think losing Juju hurt more than even I figured, and I really wanted him back. He didn't blow anyone away and his stats weren't amazing or anything, but he put himself in the right place and caught the dang ball. In other words, he has NFL-level concentration skills, which MVS, Skyy, and Toney all sorely lack. I haven't watched the Patriots but I gotta figure that Bill simply doesn't know how to use him.

Rice is a good control for this group. He'll drop the ball or put it on the ground every now and then, but the difference is that he comes back and makes several good plays for every bad one. The ratio seems to be inverted for the other guys.
