Former Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Jeff Reed was a fan favorite during his nine-year career with the Steelers, but growing up, Reed was not a fan of the Steelers. Born in Kansas City, Reed grew up a Chiefs fan, and he admitted on The Sports Guyz podcast that he “hated” the Steelers growing up.
“I hated the Steelers growing up. When you’re a Kansas City Chiefs fan, then you don’t like the Steelers. When you’re anything besides a Pittsburgh fan, you don’t like the Steelers. Because they’re always good.”
Reed said it’s similar to how people hated the Patriots during the Brady-Belichick era and now why so many people hate the Chiefs.
