Reid

Reid was suspended while under investigation for a DUI crash that left two children hospitalized, and the Chiefs have since let his contract expire after the Super Bowl. He is facing jail time and won’t coach in the NFL again. The organization is in touch with the victims’ family and is offering “support and resources.”

Reid is under investigation for a DUI that sent two toddlers to the hospital. A five-year-old girl, Ariel, remains in critical condition days later. Kansas City police is awaiting blood tests to confirm Reid’s blood alcohol levels. Reid, coach Andy Reid’s son, admitted to having “two or three” drinks while also taking Adderall the night of the accident. He’s reportedly had multiple DUIs and was cited for road rage a few years ago. The Chiefs announced that they’ve reached out to the victims’ family with their “support and resources”.

Devastating. Reid himself also remains in the hospital with “internal” injuries. La Canfora reported on CBS’ “Super Bowl Today” that toxicology reports are not expected back for several weeks. Reid admitted to police that he had been drinking before the accident. The son of head coach Andy Reid, Reid is staring down the end of his coaching career and time in jail.

Per Russini’s Friday report, Reid has “undisclosed injuries and could be there for days.” The police report said Reid was complaining of stomach pain at the scene of the accident. Reid admitted to police he had “2-3 drinks.” We have not heard the last of this upsetting story.

It happened near Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. While presumably driving home from the stadium, Reid crashed into two cars stranded on the side of a highway. Two children, four and five years old, were in the backseat. Both were hospitalized, including one suffering life-threatening injuries. Police were able to smell alcohol on Reid’s person, and Reid admitted to having two or three drinks. The investigation is ongoing. Britt, the son of Andy Reid, will not be traveling with the team for the Super Bowl.
