The Kansas City Chiefs are heading to Germany in 2023.
The team is burrowed in and focused on their upcoming divisional-round matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars, as they should be. Still, it was hard to avoid the news of the day that broke in the early morning hours.
During his afternoon media availability on Thursday, Chiefs HC Andy Reid was asked what he thought about the future trip overseas. While he hadn’t given it much consideration yet given the prep for the Jaguars, he answered in a way that only he could.
“Listen, I haven’t thought about it,” Reid said. “I look forward to getting a bratwurst. I haven’t thought about it. We’re so focused in on this thing. That – that’s (Executive Vice President of Communications) Ted (Crews) and the front office that are doing that.”
Food is never too far out of mind for Reid, whether it’s BBQ, cheeseburgers or bratwurst we’re talking about. I’m sure that Reid will give the trip to Germany a bit more thought after the playoffs, but for now, this was about as perfect of an answer as you could possibly hope for.
