In the NFL preseason, Week 3 is historically seen as the most important, as that is the week most coaches give their starters the greatest amount of reps.
Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs are no different, and this year especially, it seems that Reid will actually leave his starters in longer than most other teams will in Week 3. Reid typically plays his starters into the third quarter during the third preseason game.
The Chiefs play the San Francisco 49ers Saturday at 7 p.m. Arrowhead Time.
“I’ve kind of stayed on the same schedule that I’ve been on,” Reid said after practice on Tuesday.
