It's pretty much an ongoing joke in Philadelphia that Andy Reid's press conferences are about as interesting and enlightening as watching paint dry. The man is infamous for being guarded while letting the media and the viewing public get to know very little of what really goes on in the head coach's mind -- even more so when it came to discussing his two sons. His family was completely out of bounds.
Now, for the first time ever, Andy Reid and his wife Tammy have decided to open up and talk about the troubles their two sons, Britt and Garrett, have gone through for the past few years.
Philadelphia Magazine has the exclusive cover story that is set to hit newsstands next Wednesday. They have a
preview of the piece on their website today.
Here is Andy's response to the question of how close he's ever come to leaving the Eagles and whether that's something he still thinks about
:
We've dealt with Garrett's situation for a long time, and we've done it through Super Bowls and championships. And it's new to a lot of people, but it's not new to us. As long as Jeffrey Lurie will have me, and as long as I can do my job to the best of my ability, I would love to be an Eagle.
