The reason NFL Draft calls are a thing dates back to making sure the player is healthy and there are no last-second surprises. #Chiefs HC Andy Reid, about as old school as it gets, after drafting Peter Woods: “You healthy? Everything good? Just wanted to make sure you didn’t... fall off your bicycle or something.” 😂 (🎥 Kansas City Chiefs)show more

I hope he understands the high standards the Chiefs have. Domestic abuse, high speed car crashes, animal cruelty, burglary, aggravated assault.

This league is highly impersonal at times. I like the touch of having a coach/GM actually call the guys they want and personally invite them to join the team. Maybe that's just me.

You couldn’t bully me, pay me, even come at me with lowkey factual dirt on Big Red to make me Hate him Ever. Hes so Genuine

Can you give me one example of a draft day call where the player said "oh hey coach! You won't believe what just happened! Haha! I was getting up to grab some nachos and just broke my leg! Crazy right?"

Electric scooter Andy. Get with the times man

Reid's bicycle joke is a classic example of his dry humor. It's his way of breaking the ice and telling the player, "Welcome to the family, now please don't do anything stupid until we get there."

Andy Reid called his first round pick just to make sure he didn’t fall off a bike 💀 this man has been coaching so long he’s seen everything

He got the Defensive Guru in Spags this D is loaded

Chiefs are going to bounce back this year and go back to the playoffs. Andy Reid is so goofy though 😂

It’s like driving by a house you’re going to buy on your way to the closing. Make sure it hasn’t fallen down or burned down.

Peter woods

Andy Reid really just looked at the league and decided to draft an Aaron Donald-type defensive tackle to play alongside Chris Jones. The three-peat wasn’t enough for them; they actually want to end football as we know it. We are cooked. 💀🏈

like asking if you're a terrorist on the immigration card

The league should ban all player contact once the draft starts. Would be much better TV to have guys literally know nothing until the announcement from the podium.

courtesy calls filter for character. guy genuinely shocked to hear from you versus waiting by the phone? tells you everything about professionalism and readiness.

Tomlin use to do this a lot too

Okay

Couldn’t they just text them.

it's nice to see coaches like andy reid still making that personal connection with players, makes the draft feel less like a business transaction and more like a welcoming to a team family

This is awesome

Wow. The idea of Andy just gets worse by the minute. He’s so old it’s definitely just business at this point

old-school paranoia but somehow it’s part of how billion dollar decisions get confirmed 🏈

First draft pick from my high school. Great to see even if I hate the Chefs.

Yeah yeah

Should’ve drafted Lee Hunter over this dude

Imagine sliding in the draft because you actually fell off your bike

Should at least be a video call at this point.

you healthy? didn’t fall off your bicycle?” is the most old school thing ever said on a draft call and I love every second of it.

Old school for what
