Teicher—ESPN's Chiefs beat reporter for the last 12 seasons, and The Kansas City Star 's beat reporter for 20 seasons before that—is nearing retirement; 2024–25 will be his final season. As Kansas City's '24 run can end at any time, coach Andy Reid arranged two special going-away gifts for Teicher.
Andy Reid, Kansas City Chiefs and Mahomes
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid recently held a Zoom press conference. During the conference, he shared his thoughts on the franchise’s legacy and wealth of postseason experience.
Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid says he ramped up his team’s practice Friday in preparation for next week’s NFL playoffs. Specifically, Reid did something that rarely happens during the regular season: He had his No. 1 offense go up against his No. 1 defense.
The last time the two teams met in the AFC Divisional playoff game, the Texans got off to an explosive 24-0 first-quarter start. Then the wheels fell off.
There was a slight change in the Chiefs’ quarterback room. Daniel followed Pederson to the Eagles, and that left a roster opening. The Chiefs turned to veteran quarterback Nick Foles to fill the void. Foles made three appearances and one start.
