Chiefs HC Andy Reid continues to support coordinators seeking NFL head coaching jobs

The Kansas City Chiefs, the AFC’s top seed and back-to-back Super Bowl champions, won the AFC West for the ninth consecutive season and are focused on capturing an unprecedented third consecutive Super Bowl title. Head coach Andy Reid enters another postseason with many accolades already under his belt as he prepares his team during the bye week ahead of the Divisional Round.

The league’s oldest head coach has 26 postseason wins, the second-most in NFL history. He is also one of five coaches all-time with three Super Bowl victories. Reid has consistently credited his staff with their work and supports their efforts to leave for head coaching opportunities.

“You could take all of the coordinators there and put them right in that mix for sure. Both of them are – offensive and defensive guys are phenomenal, (Assistant Head Coach/Special Teams Coordinator Dave) Toub does a great job,” said Reid in his press conference last week. “I know the two names that normally come up are the offensive and defensive coordinators. Both of those two are – warrant that, yeah, for sure.”

Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy’s name has been circulated to multiple teams for their head coach vacancy, and he is already taking interviews. Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is another former head coach interested in listening to potential offers as the postseason gets underway.
