Reid is in his 22nd season as an NFL head coach. His record as a head coach in regular season games is 215-129-1. The former BYU alum has won 230 total games including the postseason, which is the second most among active head coaches, only behind Bill Belichick’s 308 victories.
“I’d like to thank Clark and the entire Hunt family for their support over the last eight years,” Chiefs Head Coach Andy Reid said. “Aside from winning the Super Bowl, one of my favorite moments last season was being able to be a part of bringing the Lamar Hunt Trophy back to the family. I’m grateful for our players, my coaching staff, our support staff and our great fans. My family and I love living in Kansas City, and I look forward to continuing my career here.”
Reid was a tackle and guard at BYU from 1979-81. He began his coaching career as a graduate assistant under LaVell Edwards in 1982.
