Andy Reid “Begged” a Legendary WR to Come Out of Retirement for Chiefs

Tom Brady may no longer be able to be seen playing football on an NFL pitch, but he will still be heard speaking. For the third season of Let’s Go!, according to a SiriusXM announcement, the great quarterback will once again collaborate with Jim Grey and former Arizona Cardinals standout Larry Fitzgerald.

This week, Andy Reid, the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, stated he had been attempting to get a hall of fame wide receiver to come out of retirement and play for him on Let’s Go! with Tom Brady, Larry Fitzgerald, and Jim Grey.

It was none other than Larry Fitzgerald who hasn’t stepped on pitch since 2020. Andy said

“I’ve tried to hire Larry 15 different times. I begged him even when he was out for a year to come back. Come on!”

Brady himself chimed on how he tried to recruit Larry multiple times over the course of his career and shared a story himself saying

“That makes two of us,”. “I tried to recruit Larry many times, and he kept shooting me down. … Fitz, he’s like, ’No, I’m pretty good here.’ I said ‘Wait a minute, hold on.’ … He said ’Nah, I’m pretty happy with where I’m at.’ I think he made a good decision.”

In hindsight we can’t imagine seeing Larry as a Bucs , Chief or even a Patriots player. While many players switch sides , Larry remained a One-Team man and stayed with his team for 17 long years. Well Loyalty is priceless as they say!
