Andy Reid has waited 15 years for his shot at Super Bowl redemption.

Now in his seventh season at the helm of the Kansas City Chiefs, the 61-year-old, mustache-laden coaching icon leads Missouri’s National Football League franchise into battle against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night in Super Bowl LIV.

This represents the Chiefs' first championship appearance in more than 50 years. Long-retired are former greats Len Dawson and Otis Taylor.
