Andy Reid Praises Brett Favre, Makes Pitch for Mike Holmgren to Hall of Fame

When the Kansas City Chiefs had the day off last Thursday, most of the players and coaches used the time to relax and recuperate before they got back after it again on Friday.

This wasn’t necessarily the case for everyone.

Head coach Andy Reid, general manager John Dorsey, co-offensive Coordinator Brad Childress and strength and conditioning coach Barry Rubin flew out to Canton, Ohio—home of the Pro Football Hall of Fame—for the gold jacket dinner, which was to honor quarterback Brett Favre and the other seven members of the 2016 Hall of Fame class.

All four have a long history with Favre, who spent 16 years of his illustrious 20-year NFL career with the Green Bay Packers (1992-2007).
