Chiefs coach Andy Reid has warned his players to be “smart” during their Super Bowl parade, a year after Jaylen Watson left the team’s Super Bowl celebrations in a wheelchair.
Watson, who was filmed downing a large portion of a Hennessy bottle, was apparently so drunk after the Chiefs’ victory over the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII that he could no longer walk.
And Reid does not want a repeat of that on Wednesday, according to a virtual press conference he gave the day before.
The coach was asked by reporter Pete Sweeney, “How much of the messaging is, let’s have fun, but maybe not too much fun?”
Reid replied, “That’s been mentioned a few times. It’s great to have fun. But be smart.’

‘Chief’s Kingdom!!! You were all responsible for this,” he wrote, before quoting the Beastie Boys. ‘YOU MUST FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT.’
