Andy Reid hints at retirement date amidst new season flag off

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has confirmed that he still has some time ahead of him before retirement as he aims to become the first in NFL history to win three consecutive Lombardi Trophies.

Despite speculation about his future, the 66-year-old Reid remains focused on the task at hand rather than retirement.

Reid who has faced numerous questions about how long he will continue coaching, insists he isn’t ready to retire just yet.

He draws on advice from his parents to help gauge when the time will be right.

His current contract with the Chiefs runs through the 2029 season, and Reid acknowledges that it could be a point to consider stepping down.

“I know I’m on the bottom side of this thing and not on the top side of the net,”Reid commented on a recent interview with The Athletic.

“I don’t think a lot about that, but I think that would be pretty neat. A neat thing to do,” Reid remarked in February.
