Reid Says Mahomes Will Outlast Him

The remark follows Mahomes’ return to Chiefs training camp after intense knee rehab and a June contract extension that ties him to Kansas City through 2033.

Overview

  • Reid told reporters on Monday that he does not worry about Mahomes’ future with the team and quipped that Mahomes will be in Kansas City longer than Reid will coach.
  • Mahomes has returned to Chiefs training camp after tearing his ACL and LCL late in the 2025 season and completing an intensive rehabilitation program reported to include long daily sessions.
  • The team reworked Mahomes’ deal in June to add two years and extend his contract through the 2033 season with substantial new money and multi-year guarantees.
  • Mahomes, entering his 10th NFL season and turning 31 in September, said fatherhood has given him a different perspective that makes him value small moments at camp and time with teammates.
  • Reid, 68 and under contract through 2029, continues to push back against retirement talk while the Chiefs head toward their Sept. 14 season opener and plan around long-term quarterback stability.
