Rookie quarterback Josh Rosen and his Arizona Cardinals are coming into town to challenge the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday at Noon.
Rosen grew up a diehard fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, with whom now-Chiefs head coach Andy Reid spent the first 14 seasons of his head-coaching career.
Rosen was thus asked by the Arizona media about what it will be like to face Reid now.

ROSEN: “It’s awesome. I used to have an Eagles shirt when I was a kid that said, ‘Our head coach will eat yours.’ I was a huge Andy Reid fan. Him and Mike Vick and the DeSean Jackson days are very fun to watch...we didn’t really have TiVo so she would have a video recorded and record TV screen and I was at a Pop Warner practice and it was the Redskins game and she showed me. She’s like, ‘Hey, we got a surprise for you on the first play.’ It was the naked boot when he bombed like 80 yards to DeSean Jackson. I remember it like it was yesterday after Pop Warner practice.”
It is worth noting that back in his Eagles days, Reid used to be a much heavier guy.
With Reid slimming out a bit in recent years, Rosen should have no fear of him eating Steve Wilks on Sunday.
