But, the 2025-26\u2019s season was an off one for Reid and the Chiefs, and Kansas City closed out the season on January 4 with a 6-11 record and no trip to the postseason.<\/p>\n<p>So, Reid had an off year with the Chiefs, but it happens to the best NFL coaches. Unfortunately for Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team\u2019s 30-6 loss to the Houston Texans in the wild-card round of the NFL playoffs on Monday, January 12, was enough to end his 19-year tenure there. Tomlin and the Steelers announced on Tuesday, January 13, that they were parting ways.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis organization has been a huge part of my life for many years, and it has been an absolute honor to lead this team,\u201d Tomlin said in a statement. \u201cI am deeply grateful to Art Rooney II and the late Ambassador Rooney for their trust and support.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cI am also thankful to the players who gave everything they had every day, and to the coaches and staff whose commitment and dedication made this journey so meaningful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, the Tomlin news is actually pertaining to Reid and his time with the Kansas City Chiefs.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Mike Tomlin News Impacts Andy Reid of the Kansas City Chiefs<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Tomlin was with the Steelers for 19 seasons, and before he and the team parted ways, he was the longest-tenured NFL coach.<\/p>\n<p>Now that Tomlin is gone, that makes Reid the longest-tenured coach in the NFL. Behind him are Sean McDermott of the Buffalo Bills, Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams and Kyle Shanahan of the San Francisco 49ers, who started their time as the head coach of their teams in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Even though Reid had a rough 2025-26 season, it\u2019s fully expected that he\u2019ll remain the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs for the 2026-27 run.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile this chapter comes to a close, my respect and love for the Pittsburgh Steelers will never change,\u201d Tomlin added in his statement. \u201cI am excited for what the future holds for this organization, and I will forever be grateful for my time coaching in Pittsburgh.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Kansas City Chiefs Honor Travis Kelce<\/h2>\n<p>As Kelce makes his retirement decision, the Chiefs are honoring the longstanding tight end. On Thursday, January 8, the Kansas City Chiefs announced that Kelce has make the most points in franchise history by a non-kicker. He reached 522 points during the 2025-26 season.<\/p>\n<p>Also, on Wednesday, January 7, the Kansas City Chiefs announced that Kelce is the first-ever three-time winner of the Walter Payton Man of the Year Charity Challenge presented by Nationwide. \u201cThis honor adds a $35k donation to Trav\u2019s charity of choice, Operation Breakthrough,\u201d the Chiefs stated. \u201cThank you Chiefs Kingdom, and congrats.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs didn\u2019t make the playoffs, but Kelce continued to clock strong numbers with the franchise. According to NFL research, he wrapped up the season with 76 receptions, 851 receiving yards and five touchdowns in 17 games.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is at the top of some news following Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin leaving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":41626,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kansas-city-chiefs"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
