The 2025 season didnât end the way Kansas City hoped â but it still changed history.
In a stunning twist across the league, Andy Reid has officially become the NFLâs longest-tenured active head coach, a title no one saw coming just weeks ago.
The dominoes fell quickly. Baltimore missed out on hosting a playoff game after a heartbreaking field-goal miss, and within days the Ravens parted ways with longtime head coach John Harbaugh after 18 seasons. Soon after, Mike Tomlin stepped down in Pittsburgh following another early postseason exit.
Just like that, the coaching landscape was reshuffled â and Reid was left standing.
Now entering his 13th season with the Chiefs, Reid suddenly owns a rare distinction in a league known for impatience: longevity. From Philadelphia to Kansas City, he has defined what sustained excellence looks like, even as franchises across the NFL churn through leadership in search of answers.
Despite Kansas Cityâs worst record under his watch, Reid isnât going anywhere. The future Hall of Famer briefly addressed his plans with reporters and showed no signs of slowing down.
Three Super Bowl titles. Franchise leader in wins. Architect of one of the NFLâs modern dynasties.
As the 2026 season approaches, Andy Reid isnât just rebuilding a roster â heâs quietly cementing a legacy unmatched by any coach still on the sideline.
