Second Bullet Targets Chiefs Coach Andy Reid’s Office in Shocking New Incident
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A second bullet pierced Andy Reid’s office window at the Chiefs’ practice facility late Tuesday night (August 20, 2025), escalating safety concerns. The 67-year-old coach, unharmed, was not present during the incident.
The shooting occurred around 11 p.m., shattering the bulletproof glass installed after a similar event in May 2024. The bullet lodged in a wall, per sources. KCPD called it an isolated act, with no arrests made.
In the 2024 incident, Reid was inside when a bullet broke his office window, embedding 15 feet away. Two more rounds hit the building. Unreported for 15 months, it shocked Chiefs staff when revealed.
KCPD is investigating both shootings as aggravated assaults. Capt. Jacob Becchina said there’s no evidence of targeting, but ballistics are being analyzed for links. The motive remains unclear as the probe continues.
The Chiefs, silent on both incidents, bolstered security after 2024 with bulletproof glass and patrols. Yet, Tuesday’s breach has rattled players and staff, many unaware of the prior shooting until recently.
Reid, a three-time Super Bowl champion, leads a Chiefs dynasty. The incidents underscore risks at high-profile facilities. The Truman Sports Complex faces scrutiny as the team’s lease nears its 2031 expiration.
With the final preseason game against Chicago looming Friday, the Chiefs face off-field challenges. The shootings highlight vulnerabilities, even as Reid preps starters for the Chargers opener on September 5.

San Francisco 49ers lose promising rookie running back to an ankle injury
LAS VEGAS (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers might have celebrated Saturday's 22-19 preseason win over the Las Vegas Raiders as if it were a playoff game, rushing
The 49ers lost starting right guard
Puni left with a knee injury on the game’s first drive while blocking for a field goal, and coach Kyle Shanahan said the second-year pro will miss “a few weeks.”
Shortly after Puni’s exit, backup running back and special teams player Patrick Taylor Jr. left with a shoulder injury. Next, it was rookie running back Corey Kiner, who is battling for a roster spot. Kiner replaced Taylor but left with an ankle injury after an 19-yard carry. Kiner was carted off the field.
Shanahan said Taylor dislocated his shoulder and Kiner suffered what was “most likely a high ankle” sprain, and both are expected to miss a couple of weeks.
“I mean, (we’ll) just deal with it,” Shanahan said. “Hopefully, we get a bunch of guys back here and we don’t lose anyone for the year or anything like that. We got pretty good luck on defense and special teams today, so that was good.
“But losing those three guys on offense was tough. But they won’t be off forever, so hopefully they’ll heal fast.”
The 49ers already had more than 20 players injured, including a banged-up group of wide receivers.
Star running back Christian McCaffrey has looked healthy this summer after missing most of last season with Achilles tendinitis and a knee injury. But four of his backups — including
“We lost our two and three a couple weeks ago, and then the next guys up, we lost them today, but all those guys will be back,” Shanahan said. “We’ve been through that before. You can never have too many backs. We got a number of them, and we haven’t lost anyone for the year yet.”
