Someone fired three gunshots at the Kansas City Chiefs’ practice facility in May 2024, with one bullet narrowly missing coach Andy Reid, according to a report published Wednesday.
The Kansas City Star reported that an unknown suspect fired the shots. One round entered Reid’s office, missing him by about 15 feet.
Another bullet hit an air conditioning unit, while a third struck the facility’s third floor, according to the Star.
The Chiefs haven’t publicly commented on the report.
Authorities have made no arrests in the shooting and told the Star, “There is no indication this was a targeted incident.”
Chiefs officials have since installed bulletproof glass in Reid’s office, sources told the newspaper.
Reid, 67, leads all active NFL coaches in wins. He has won three Super Bowls with the Chiefs since accepting the role in 2013. The 2002 NFL Coach of the Year previously coached the Philadelphia Eagles for 14 seasons.
The NFL recommended enhanced security measures at stadiums and practice facilities throughout the country after a shooting outside the league’s Manhattan offices last month.
“In moments like these, we are reminded that safety is not a background function. It is foundational,” a memo from the league’s office to the 32 teams said.
The NFL has recommended weapon scanners at team practice facilities, armed guards and updated threat assessments. The league is expected to review new recommendations at a special meeting on Tuesday.
