NFL fans rip into Chiefs for releasing Justin Reid as two-time Super Bowl winner agrees $32m deal with Saints

By OLIVER SALT

Former Kansas City Chiefs safety Justin Reid is signing for the New Orleans Saints, according to multiple reports.

Reid, who was released by the Chiefs this offseason, has agreed a three-year, $31.5million deal with the Saints that includes $22.5m guaranteed.

The 28-year-old spent three seasons in Kansas City, where he helped Andy Reid’s team win two Super Bowls.

NFL fans believe the Chiefs have made a huge mistake releasing Reid and allowing him to join the Saints, taking to X to express confusion over the decision.

One concluded: ‘Not great for the Chiefs.’

Another said: ‘chiefs should of kept em, good signing for the saints’.

‘Chiefs really let him go…’ a third wrote in astonishment.

‘I’m seeing some key guys leaving positions with the Chiefs and none coming onboard yet,’ a fourth pointed out.

One simply posted: ‘CHIEFS FALLOFF IS HERE’.

While a Kansas City fan commented: ‘My Chiefs are cooked’.

Reid made 49 appearances during his three-year stint with the Chiefs, registering a total of 265 tackles.

He reached the Super Bowl in all three of his seasons at Arrowhead Stadium, yet failed to go out on a high and land a historic three-peat in last month’s showpiece against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Before his time in Kansas City, the former Stanford alumnus enjoyed four years with the Houston Texans, who selected him in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
