Andy Reid

Head Coach, Kansas City Chiefs

Head Coach

Calling plays for KC since 2013

Play-calling authority

90%

Reid remains the primary caller after Eric Bieniemy's return as OC ('I still enjoy calling plays'), but he describes a joint operation — roughly '51% of the say' — with situational delegation to assistants in the red zone and on third down.

Tendencies

PaceSlightly faster than league average between snaps, but modest overall play volume in 2025
Early downsDecidedly pass-leaning: perennially high PROE with a neutral dropback rate around two-thirds
Target treeNarrow when Rice plays: ~29% target share across his 2025 games, Kelce near 20%
SlotSlot-centric underneath game: ~75% of Rice's targets came within nine yards of the line
MotionPerennially among the NFL's heaviest motion offenses — shifts and jet motion to scheme leverage
Red zonePass-first inside the 20: Kelce and Rice dominate red-zone targets; goal-line RB committee
AlsoDead last in play-action in 2025 yet 2nd-highest RPO rate, with a heavy, efficient screen game
Who benefitsShort-area YAC/screen slot WRs, red-zone TEs, pass-catching committee RBs; pure deep threats stay capped

Based on: 2025 Kansas City offense (13th year calling)
