After the Chiefs edged the Bengals, 23–20, in a thrilling AFC title game Sunday, the victory set up Kansas City coach Andy Reid for a Super Bowl appearance against his former team, the Eagles.
When the Chiefs take the field in Super Bowl LVII, Reid will become the fifth coach to face a former team in the Super Bowl.
Reid joins Weeb Ewbank, who coached the Jets against the Colts in Super Bowl III; Dan Reeves, who coached the Falcons against the Broncos in Super Bowl XXXIII; Jon Gruden, who coached the Buccaneers against the Raiders in Super Bowl XXXVII; and Pete Carroll, who coached the Seahawks against the Patriots in Super Bowl XLIX.
