Video: Andy Reid Confirms He'll Return as Chiefs HC for 2025 NFL Season

As he prepares to lead the Kansas City Chiefs in their third straight Super Bowl appearance on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles, head coach Andy Reid made it clear that he's not planning on retiring, regardless of the outcome.

Reid told reporters on Tuesday that he will return as head coach of the Chiefs in 2025, and he plans to continue coaching not for the sake of chasing wins records but because he still enjoys teaching the game:

The 2025 campaign will be Reid's 13th in Kansas City. Under his direction, the team has reached the Super Bowl five times in the last six years, and a win on Sunday against Philadelphia would achieve the first three-peat in modern NFL history.

Reid's comments come after Chiefs owner Clark Hunt told reporters during Super Bowl Opening Night on Monday that he fully expected the 66-year-old to be back on the sideline next season.

"I was always surprised when I heard those rumors [of Reid's retirement] because I know how much fun Andy's having," Hunt said. "He, in a lot of ways, is rejuvenated by the success the team's had. Certainly, he's matched with the quarterback that's the perfect complement for him in Patrick [Mahomes]. I know he loves what he's doing. I know for a fact he's going to be back next year."

Reid ranks fourth all-time with 273 career wins. Last April, he signed a contract extension that would keep him in Kansas City through the 2029 season, assuming he doesn't call it a career before that.

While the rest of the NFL likely would welcome the prospect of Reid riding off into the sunset and ending his run of dominance, it appears that he hasn't lost his motivation to continue doing what he does best.
