Chiefs move back start of practice and some watch the eclipse

Chiefs coach Andy Reid didn’t stop his players from checking out Kansas City’s first total eclipse in 99 years Monday.

They had practice scheduled for 1:40 p.m., which was toward the end of the eclipse, but moved the start back to 2:25. Some players came out of the locker room to watch before practice started.

“I’ve seen one — I can’t tell you it’s like Disneyland or anything,” joked Reid, who saw the last partial eclipse several years ago. “I’ve seen it, done it, and listen, it’s interesting to see one time. If the guys want to take a look at it, I’m OK with it.
