Mahomes completed each of his passes against the Chiefs’ scout team while across town the Eagles closed out the week with a light practice on a warm day in New Orleans.
“He comes out with a purpose every day, and he knows he’s playing against a real good team,” Reid said of his quarterback, according to a pool report.
“You can’t miss too many reps against this group.”
The Chiefs’ starting offense and defense largely focused on situational football in the 70-minute practice.
“We’re in a good spot,” Reid said.
“You’ve got to make sure you stay focused the next couple days and keep getting yourself ready. We’ll get a walk through in tomorrow and then go play.”
The Eagles were fine-tuning their red zone play and cleaning up their game plan as they look to thwart the Chiefs’ bid for a third straight tile and get revenge for their loss to the team in the Big Game two years ago.
“Normal Friday,” said Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni.
“Really good all week, really good today. There’s some stuff we need to clean up, like any practice, but I thought the focus was there and the energy was there and the effort was there.”
The Eagles’ players and coaches will have some down time Friday evening to be with their families before closing out their Super Bowl prep with more film study, a mock game and the team photo on Saturday.
The Chiefs’ will also have a walk through on Saturday and both teams remain mostly healthy heading into the NFL title game on Sunday.
