Andy Reid stated his intention to retire for the following reasons.

The idea that Chiefs coach Andy Reid might retire after the team’s current postseason run concludes has been floated a few times in a variety of formats and contexts. Clarification of what we have heard and have not heard is the aim of this item.

Reid’s retirement following the season has not been mentioned or heard. Days prior to the Dolphins wild-card victory, Reid declared, “I haven’t even thought about that.” I have just one thought on my mind. Since I’m old, but not that old, I assumed that would come up when you guys were asking these questions.

We have stated and will continue to state that the Chiefs are considering Andy Reid’s retirement following the current postseason.

That idea has drawn strong reactions from some Chiefs supporters. They have the right to do that. Whatever we say to the contrary, no matter how accurate, won’t matter if they want to think the Chiefs aren’t considering Andy Reid’s retirement.

At least one account on X has linked Reid to the following quote because of the problem: “I have no reason to stop coaching football.” I adore it.

Reid didn’t say that, which is the only issue with it. Travis Kelce, the tight end for the Chiefs, stated as much, substituting the word “playing” for “coaching.”

Once more, we’re not implying that Reid is leaving. We are suggesting that the Chiefs are considering Reid’s retirement. It’s your business if you don’t want to believe it or don’t like it. It’s your business if you believe that we are saying this because we want the Chiefs to lose on Sunday—I predict them to win.

Reid is free to decide whether to continue coaching. After this season’s business concludes, we will all be able to determine whether he continues.
