Chiefs Suspend Britt Reid Following Car Crash That Seriously Injured 5-Year-Old Girl

The Kansas City Chiefs announced that they have suspended linebackers coach Britt Reid, placing him on administrative leave.

The 35-year-old was involved in a car accident late Thursday night that left a 5-year-old girl critically injured.

“Our focus remains on Ariel Young and her family," the Chiefs said in a statement. "We have reached out to the family to offer our support and resources to them during this difficult time, and we will continue to pray for her recovery.”

According to reports, the Kansas City Police Department officers "were trying to determine whether driver impairment was a factor in the crash" and Reid admitted to having "two to three drinks" in addition to prescription Adderall.
