Andrew Walter Reid is an American football coach who is the head coach for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League. Reid was previously head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles from 1999 to 2012.
Born: 19 March 1958 (age 65 years), Los Angeles, California, United States
From 2001 to 2012, he was also the Eagles’ executive vice president of football operations becoming the general manager. He is the only NFL coach to win 100 games and appear in four consecutive conference championships with two different franchises
Reid began his professional coaching career with the Green Bay Packers, where he served as an offensive assistant from 1992 to 1998 and won a Super Bowl title in Super Bowl XXXI. He held his first head coaching position with the Eagles in 1999, who became perennial postseason contenders under his leadership. Reid led the Eagles to nine playoff runs, six division titles, five NFC Championship Games (including four consecutive from 2001 to 2004), and an appearance in Super Bowl XXXIX where they lost to the New England Patriots. Despite Reid’s consistent success, the Eagles declined and missed the playoffs in the 2011 and 2012 seasons, leading to his dismissal from Philadelphia.
Reid was immediately hired as the head coach of the Chiefs in 2013, where he quickly revitalized the struggling franchise. He helped end the eight-game playoff losing streak that began in 1993. In 10 seasons with Kansas City, he has led them to successful seasons with nine postseason appearances, seven division titles, five consecutive AFC Championship Games, three Super Bowl appearances (LIV, LV, LVII), and two wins (LIV, LVII), with the second being against his former longtime team, the Eagles.
