Chiefs coach Andy Reid has urged his players to be “smart” in their Super Bowl parade, a year after Jaylen Watson left the team's Super Bowl festivities in a wheelchair.
Watson, who was filmed drinking a large portion of a Hennessy bottle, was apparently so drunk that he couldn't walk after the Chiefs' victory over the Eagles in Super Bowl LVII.
And Reid doesn't want that to happen again on Wednesday, according to a virtual press conference he gave the day before.
The coach was asked by reporter Pete Sweeney: “How much of the message is that we're having fun, but maybe not too much fun?”
Reid replied: “That's been mentioned a few times.” It's great to have fun. But be smart.'
