Chiefs HC Andy Reid’s foggy face shield was talk of Twitter during Week 1

Andy Reid had some trouble with his face shield during the season opener.

Kansas City Chiefs HC Andy Reid had a bit of a wardrobe malfunction during the Week 1 tilt with the Houston Texans.

Everyone is adjusting to the new COVID-19 protocols, especially the folks on the sideline who are required to wear masks throughout the course of the game. Reid started the night with a mask on, but he ultimately switched to a face shield for the majority of the game, presumably to make calling plays a bit easier.

The problem, however, was that the weather was rainy and humid in Kansas City. Reid’s face shield began to fog up and caused him some problems throughout the game. Twitter, of course, had a field day with it.

Check it out:

After the game, Reid had a few things to say about his fogged-up face shield.

“That was brutal,” Reid told KSHB-TV reporter Aaron Ladd. “I didn’t do very good with that thing. But listen, it’ll be better the next time. I appreciate you asking that, though, it was a bit of a mess.”

There you have it. This might not be the last time you see Reid rocking the face shield during the season. Next time, however, it might be equipped with some sort of anti-fogging device. Perhaps he’ll get his own personal attendant to wipe it down throughout the game.
