The Kansas City Chiefs have released a statement this afternoon as former OLB coach Britt Reid, son of head coach Andy Reid, was formally charged with felony DWI by the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office. The charges against Britt stem from Feb. 4th crash, which left 5-year-old Ariel Young critically injured.
Check out the statement from the team down below:
“The Kansas City Chiefs organization remains steadfast in our concern for all who have been impacted by this tragic accident. Our prayers are focused on Ariel’s continued healing and recovery. The Chiefs are regularly in contact with the family’s designated representative during this challenging time.”
This statement echoes previous statements from the team, including that from Andy Reid, speaking to the media after Super Bowl LV.
“My heart goes out to all those involved in the accident, in particular the family with the little girl fighting for her life,” Reid told reporters after the game. “I can’t comment on it any more than I am here, so the questions you have, I am going to have to turn those down at the time. But just from a human standpoint, man, my heart bleeds for everyone involved in that.”
