Andy Reid is getting ready for yet another season in the NFL and another crack at another Lombardi.
One of the NFL’s greatest ever minds is preparing for his 13th season as the Kansas City Chiefs head coach, having already won three Super Bowls with the franchise
However his NFL coaching career began in 1992 after 10 years learning his trade in college – and he looked a little different to the instantly recognizable figure he has become.
Fast forward to 2025 and he has the fourth-most career wins in NFL history (301 and counting), and is the only head coach in NFL history who has won 100 games with two franchises (Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles).
Reid has revitalized the Chiefs since taking over in 2011, masterminding one of the NFL’s greatest modern dynasties which fell agonizingly short of an unprecedented Super Bowl three-peat.
The Chiefs were beaten 40-22 in New Orleans as the magic of Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and ‘Big Red’ were beaten by Reid’s former team, the Eagles, in Super Bowl LIX.
But before all of his Chiefs success, Reid was an assistant with the Green Bay Packers.
Reid joined the Packers as assistant offensive line and tight ends coach – having held the position of O-line coach with Missouri for two years.
He would enjoyed four years, from 1992 to 1996, working under Packers head coach Mike Holmgren on a staff that included Jon Gruden.
He then became quarterbacks coach and an assistant head coach in 1997-98, a job that included close work with Hall of Famer Brett Favre and included a run to the Super Bowl in 1997.
However, it wasn’t all plain sailing for Reid and the Packers, with rare throwback footage showing that even geniuses get things wrong from time to time.
The footage, which went viral earlier this year at the Chiefs were embarking on their latest Super Bowl quest, starts with quarterback Favre telling Reid, “I love you, man.”
Reid joked to Favre that he was going to get his ‘a** whooped’ for messing up a playX@theonlydyl_ A furious Holmgren asked who called the playX@theonlydyl_ Reid admitted it was him and explained he sent in the wrong thingX@theonlydyl_“Yeah, I can tell,” Reid responded. “I hope you still love me after I get my a** whooped.”
The clip cuts to Holmgren roasting Reid for messing up a play. “What happened on the screen?” the furious then-Packers head coach asked his staff. “Why’d we run that?”
“That’s me,” a remarkably honest Reid answered.
“Why, why is it you?” an incandescent Holmgren barked back.
“That’s me, I sent in the wrong thing,” Reid replied.
“The formation?” asked Holmgren.

“Moonlight F short, I sent it in,” Reid added before Holmgren told everyone to get back to the first 15.
NFL fans caught wind of the footage and were loving Reid’s accountability.
“He took accountability. He’s definitely passed that down to his KC players,” one fan posted.
“‘Why is it you?’ Holmgren knew Andy was covering Bret’s a** he ain’t stupid lol,” joked another.
“This is the kind of content NFL fans truly deserve,” commented a third.
“Accountability! Love Big Red!!” a fourth shared.
“Brett smiling in the background in the end rofl,” someone else observed.
Reid turned the Eagles in perennial contenders but never won a Super Bowl with the franchiseGetty Reid and the Chiefs are chasing a historic three-peat this seasonGettyReid was part of the Packers staff who won Super Bowl XXXI at the end of the 1996 season against the New England Patriots.
A year later, Green Bay were beaten in Super Bowl XXXII by the Denver Broncos and, by 1999, ‘Big Red’ was in charge of the Eagles.
During his stint in Philly, Reid led the Eagles to nine playoff runs, six division titles, five NFC Championship Games (including four consecutive from 2001 to 2004), and an appearance in Super Bowl XXXIX.
However, they were beaten by Bill Belichick and Tom Brady‘s New England Patriots, meaning Reid ultimately was able to never win a Super Bowl in Philadelphia.
He was fired after the 2012 season, but the Eagles’ loss was the Chiefs’ gain, and Reid was appointed Kansas City head coach in 2013.
The 66-year-old, who is the highest paid coach in the NFL, has led the Chiefs to eleven postseason appearances, nine consecutive division titles, seven consecutive AFC Championship Games, five Super Bowl appearances, and three Super Bowl titles.
