Andy Reid Accidentally Drops Speeding Joke About Chiefs WR Rashee Rice: “No Pun Intended”

Like every other NFL team right now, the Kansas City Chiefs are in the middle of the dog days of training camp.

That means that the regular season is right around the corner, and soon, teams will compete out on the field, and then coaches will have to talk about how those games went after the fact. I don’t know about you, but I love a good post-game press conference. Sometimes coaches say some wild and off the wall stuff.

Interestingly enough, Chiefs Head Coach Andy Reid didn’t even wait until the regular season to start doing that.

Everyone’s favorite mustachioed, hamburger-loving NFL coach was talking to the media after Kansas City’s training camp today, and he was asked an important question about wide receiver Rashee Rice. The wide out had quite the rookie year in 2023, and was following it up with an impressive sophomore season before he went down with a torn LCL in his knee in Week 4.

Rice, who grew up in Texas and played college football at SMU, has rehabbed and fully recovered from his injury, and is set to take the field once again for Kansas City this season. That is if he doesn’t get hit with a suspension from the NFL for his involvement in a high-speed car crash in Dallas that took place in the summer of 2024.

The speedster – in both the football and driving sense – was street racing in his Lamborghini at close to 120 miles per hour when he crashed an injured four others. He fled the scene, which made matters worse, and led to Rice facing eight different charges: one count of collision involving serious bodily injury, one count of aggravated assault, and six counts of collision involving bodily injury.

One could argue that all of that, and Rashee Rice’s looming suspension because of that, is no laughing matter.

Try telling that to Andy Reid though. When the head coach was asked about Rashee Rice’s progression from injury so far through training camp, he provided this statement that he may not have initially intended to be a joke… but definitely turned into one when he added “no pun intended” at the end:

“On the field he’s just been full speed ahead. No pun intended.”
