Chiefs coach Andy Reid was a guest on Brett Favre’s SiriusXM show on Tuesday and their conversation turned to, you guessed it, quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Most people know that Reid was an assistant coach with the Green Bay Packers when Favre was the quarterback. But their history goes back farther than that.
Reid was the offensive-line coach at Texas-El Paso in the 1980s (under Bob Stull who would later go to Mizzou) and the Miners faced Southern Mississippi in the 1988 Independence Bowl. The quarterback for the Golden Eagles? It was a “young pup” named Brett Favre.
