After the Chiefs’ Super Bowl LVIII win, Reid told members of the media that he hasn’t “even thought about” retirement.
“I’m the old guy now, so I guess I’m going to be asked that,” Reid said. “But I really haven’t gone there. I haven’t thought about it.”Reid currently has two years remaining on the six-year contract extension he signed in 2019 after he won his first Super Bowl with the Chiefs.
Only Bill Belichick (six) and Chuck Noll (four) have more Super Bowl wins than Reid. If the Chiefs have it their way and become three-peat Super Bowl champs, Reid will only have Belichick ahead of him on the all-time list.The extension news puts to bed any rumors that Reid is retiring — for now.
Rumors of Reid’s retirement began to swirl again before the Super Bowl, when Reid became the oldest active head coach in the NFL after the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots decided to part ways with Pete Carroll and Belichick, respectively.
