When the Kansas City Chiefs' winningest head coach steps away from the gridiron, he doesn't stay far from the city's sports scene. Andy Reid made a memorable return to CPKC Stadium on Friday night, not for football, but to rally fans for the NWSL's KC Current as they took on the Houston Dash.

Reid, a beloved figure in Kansas City sports lore, took on the honorary role of leading the crowd in the rousing "KC Baby" chants—a tradition that has seen Chiefs players and staff energize local events. His appearance wasn't just a cameo; it was a testament to the growing bond between the Chiefs and the Current, two franchises that share more than just a city.

The Current wasted no time channeling that energy into a dominant performance, securing a 3-0 shutout victory over the Dash. Co-owned by Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, the team has rapidly become one of the National Women's Soccer League's most popular and successful franchises, drawing fans with their winning spirit and community engagement.

Reid's offseason has been anything but quiet. Beyond his Current appearance, he was spotted cheering on his alma mater, BYU, at the Big 12 college basketball tournament. But Friday night was all about supporting the women's game and showcasing the synergy between Kansas City's top sports teams.

As the 2026 NWSL season kicks off, the Current's partnership with the Chiefs continues to thrive—on the field, in the stands, and in the heart of a city that loves its champions.
