Andy Reid has the Kansas City Chiefs back in the Super Bowl for the first time in 50 years and a win on Sunday would make him beloved by fans who have been dying for this opportunity to have their team win a championship.
Reid, of course, spent 14 seasons as a head coach in another passionate sports town, which hasn’t been lost him. His long run with the Philadelphia Eagles, where he brought them to one Super Bowl but fell short of taking home the Lombardi Trophy, hasn’t been lost on him to this day.
Reid has been the head coach in Kansas City for seven seasons, but he’s still thought of in Philadelphia and has fans there cheering for him to win it all on Sunday. One popular sports radio station is even having an “Andy Reid Day” on Thursday.
Reid spoke Wednesday about how he used to get booed sometimes in Philly, calling that a “badge of of honor,” and how he loved his time in Philadelphia.
Reid continues to be one of the biggest stars of Super Bowl week.
