Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid recently praised Utah’s top college football programs and their head coaches, Kalani Sitake and Kyle Whittingham, at the Utah State of Sport Awards. Reid, a BYU alum, spoke highly of Sitake’s coaching style and recruiting abilities, as well as Whittingham’s impressive work with the Utes. He emphasized the difficulty of replicating Whittingham’s success at the University of Utah.
Reid, who played college football in Provo and later coached at BYU, has had a successful career in the NFL. After coaching the Philadelphia Eagles, he joined the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013 and led them to two Super Bowl victories. Known for his coaching prowess, Reid’s comments on the local college football coaches in Utah hold significant weight.
The event also served as the Governor’s State of Sport Awards, where Utah teams and athletes were recognized for their achievements. Reid helped open the event and showed his support for the local sports community.
