Andy Reid (Andrew Walter Reid) is an American football coach who is the current head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL). He was previously the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, a position he held from 1999 to 2012.

From 2001 to 2012, Reid was also the Eagles’ executive vice president of football operations, effectively making him the team’s general manager. Andy Reid led the Eagles to five National Football Conference (NFC) championship games, including four consecutive appearances from 2001–2004, and one Super Bowl appearance in 2005. He played college football at Brigham Young University.

He attended John Marshall High School and as a teenager, he worked as a vendor at Dodger Stadium. Reid also played youth sports in East Hollywood at Lemon Grove Recreation Center, and among his coaches was Pete Arbogast, who is the radio announcer for the USC football team, and formerly the radio play-by-play man for the Cincinnati Bengals.

In 1971, when Reid was 13, he appeared live on Monday Night Football during the Punt, Pass, and Kick competition; he was already so large that he wore the jersey of Les Josephson (6’1″, 207 pounds).

He played offensive tackle at Glendale Community College in Glendale, California. Reid also played offensive tackle at Brigham Young University from 1978 to 1980 where he was a teammate of Jim McMahon.
