Andy Reid spoke about Trevor Lawrence’s big play that led to another loss for the Kansas City Chiefs, 31-28, against the Jacksonville Jaguars. In recent days, the sequence has been discussed in the national media, especially due to the lack of effort shown by defensive star Chris Jones.

This was the message Reid sent to the player after what happened. “Well, you can’t think that the guy is down. I mean, you can’t think that. You got to just play the play. He knows. He’s been around this thing a long time. So, that’s really what it came down to.”

Now, if the Chiefs want to win the Super Bowl, the margin for error is gone. As if that weren’t enough, the next challenge is huge at Arrowhead Stadium, hosting the Detroit Lions, who have four consecutive wins.
