Andy Reid praises Chiefs rookies after loss to Jaguars

The Kansas City Chiefs took to the field for the first outing of the preseason when they traveled to Jacksonville to play against the Jaguars on Saturday.

While both teams were there to see how their changes during the offseason would begin to materialize, Jacksonville appeared to have the upper hand in this match after the Chiefs’ defense allowed their opponents to score quickly in the first quarter, and the offense was also seen struggling to make progress early in the game.

Head coach Andy Reid took the stand in front of the press after the game to share his impressions of the Kansas City Chiefs’ first preseason tilt, and in his remarks, when asked about the Chiefs’ additions for 2024 Reid had this to say:

“[…] I like what I’ve seen,” Reid explained. “I’m not going to go back through all those guys. I thought there were some positives things they can take from it. In some cases, they have to learn and we’ll clean all that up. That’s what it’s for, that’ll be a good tape for them.”

It sounds like Coach Reid saw some things on the field that he was content with even though the Kansas City Chiefs finished the match at a loss with a final score of 26-13, fans can expect a confident return when the team retakes the field at Arrowhead on August 17 for their second preseason tilt versus the Detroit Lions.
