Over the past decade, there hasn’t been any organization with more success than the Kansas City Chiefs. Across this 10-year span, the Chiefs lead the way with 123 wins across 164 games, 22 more than the next-closest team (the Buffalo Bills). In that span, the Chiefs have won three Super Bowls, equaling the New England Patriots.
Many things have led to that success, with the biggest one being Patrick Mahomes joining the franchise. But even before Mahomes came in, the team was already racking up wins, tracing all the way back to 2010 and 2013 when Andy Reid was hired. Reid is a big correlation to that success, but there’s a specific front office executive who has been there from the get-go: Mike Borgonzi. Now, the Chiefs are set to lose Borgonzi to the Tennessee Titans.

Mike Borgonzi lands big promotion as new Tennessee Titans GM
Having fired Ran Carthon recently, the Titans plan to make Borgonzi their new general manager. This is a promotion for Borgonzi, who was acting as the assistant GM to Brett Veach since 2021.
Borgonzi’s Chiefs tenure featured several different roles with promotions coming every few years. He worked his way up the ladder in true grind-it-out fashion.
- Administrator of College Scouting: 2009
- Manager of Football Operations: 2010
- Pro Scout: 2011-2012
- Assistant Director of Pro Scouting: 2013-2014
- Director of Player Personnel: 2015-2017
- Director of Football Operations: 2018-2020
- Assistant General Manager: 2021-2024
He’s been a trusted voice for the Chiefs organization and is a big reason the team has been able to build a juggernaut and sustain success since 2013. The Titans seem to have gotten a good one.
