Terrell Suggs pleads guilty in Scottsdale Starbucks drive-thru confrontation
The 42-year-old pleaded guilty Thursday to a reduced charge of disorderly conduct and is set for sentencing on April 1 in Maricopa County, according to court records. As part of the plea deal, charges of threatening or intimidating were dismissed.
The charges stem from a March 10 incident at a Starbucks drive-thru on Hayden Road and East Thompson Peak Parkway, where Suggs and another driver got into a confrontation, according to court documents. The dispute centered on whether Suggs' Range Rover had backed into the other driver's vehicle, the documents state.
Suggs told the other driver, "I'll kill your b**** a**," before pulling out a handgun and driving off, charging documents stated. Though the handgun was never pointed at the other driver, he felt threatened, according to court documents.
Police traced the Range Rover to Suggs and took him into custody April 9, 2024, as he drove out of his Scottsdale home, court documents mentioned.
Playing for the Cardinals for 13 games before being released to the Kansas City Chiefs where he won a Super Bowl in 2020, that season was Suggs' last in the NFL. He played 16 seasons for the Baltimore Ravens, having won his first Super Bowl in 2012.

Patrick Mahomes reveals sobering reality of father's DWI arrest just before Chiefs' 2024 Super Bowl victory
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes revealed in a new docuseries that his father's 2024 DWI arrest, which happened just over a week before the Super Bowl, was a life-altering moment for his dad. Patrick Mahomes Sr. was arrested in February 2024 in Tyler, Texas, on a felony DWI charge, the third such charge for the former MLB pitcher. News of his arrest came just over a week before the Chiefs were due to face the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII. Mahomes fielded several questions about his father's arrest in the lead-up to the game. But in a new ESPN documentary released Wednesday, "Chiefs Kingdom," Mahomes said it was the media circus he had to face that served as a moment of clarity for the elder Mahomes. "It was during that Super Bowl. It became a story, and so, I had to answer questions about it," Mahomes recalled, via the New York Post. "I think just knowing that it hurt me woke him up to know that, like, you can't keep doing the same things." Mahomes Sr. also appeared in the episode, calling the incident "the most embarrassing" struggle he has faced. "It kind of hit home before the Super Bowl last year, when I got in trouble. For him to have to answer questions about me, you know, was probably the most embarrassing thing that I've ever been through in my life," he said. "I called him right after … I said, 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry that it's taken away from your time and focus.' … I made a vow that he would never have to deal with anything because of drinking because of me. I haven't had a drink since then." Mahomes' wife, Brittany, also appeared in the episode. She echoed her husband's remarks, adding that their children witnessing Mahomes Sr.'s struggles added to the sobering reality of his actions. "I think it finally hit him that, you know, 'I have my kids watching me, I have my grandkids now that are watching me,'" she said. Mahomes Sr. pleaded guilty to the charge in August 2024 and was ordered to spend 10 days in jail, followed by a five-year probation period. He was criminally charged with DWI on two prior occasions, including one incident on Sept. 12, 2008, in South Dakota, and another on Feb. 26, 2019, in Smith County, Texas. Mahomes Sr. was a pitcher for six different MLB teams from 1992 to 2003, and was famously part of the 2000 New York Mets team that reached the World Series.

Report Says Bullet Was Fired Into Chiefs Coach Andy Reid's Office Last Spring
National Football League Report Says Bullet Was Fired Into Chiefs Coach Andy Reid's Office Last Spring Published Aug. 21, 2025 11:12 a.m. ET share facebook x reddit link A bullet was fired into Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid's office at the team's practice facility last spring while he was inside, the Kansas City Star reported Wednesday. The Star, citing multiple sources, reported Reid was working alone in his office in early May 2024 when a bullet fired from outside the building broke through glass and left a hole through the window and blinds. It got lodged in a wall between his bathroom and the entry door to his office. The team installed bulletproof glass soon afterward. The Star reported two more bullets hit the facility, with one striking the third floor and another an outdoor air-conditioning unit. Few people in the organization knew about the incident. A Chiefs spokesman declined comment to the AP on Wednesday night. The incident occurred just months after Reid led the Chiefs to a Super Bowl championship repeat and their third title in a five-year span. They won the AFC again last season, only to lose to Philadelphia. ADVERTISEMENT Reid has a 273-146-1 record in 12 seasons with the Chiefs and 14 with the Eagles.

A bullet broke through Chiefs coach Andy Reid's office — while he was inside
A bullet broke through the glass of an office at the Chiefs' practice facility last summer, multiple sources told The Star. Inside the office at the time: Andy Reid. Reid, the 67-year-old head coach of three Super Bowl-winning teams in Kansas City, was not struck or injured by the gunshot, and neither was anyone else, according to a spokesperson for the Kansas City Police Department. But the most prominent active head coach in the NFL now works protected by bulletproof glass, sources said, a safety measure installed soon after. Several sources have confirmed the May 2024 event to The Star. It had previously not been widely known in the 15 months after its occurrence — even among those in the building. For many Chiefs players and staff, The Star's report will be the first they have learned of the gunfire that hit the facility. Reid was working alone in his practice facility office in early May 2024 when a bullet fired from outside the building penetrated the glass and shot a hole through the window and blinds. The bullet lodged in a wall between his bathroom and the entry door to his office. That's roughly 15 feet from Reid's desk — the approximate distance between a 15-month well-kept secret and a stunning tragedy. No arrests or charges have been made in the case. The investigation is ongoing, including the location from where the shots originated, according to Kansas City Police Department spokesperson Capt. Jacob Becchina, who said 'there is no indication this was a targeted incident at any person or organization.' 'Because the building was occupied at the time of the bullet coming through the window, the case is being investigated as an aggravated assault,' Becchina said. Two other bullets struck the facility during the gunfire — one hitting the third floor, one floor above Reid's office, and another an outdoor air conditioning unit, sources said. The Chiefs declined comment for this story. The gunfire occurred shortly after midnight on the morning of May 4, 2024, according to a sparse incident report provided by the Kansas City Police Department and obtained by The Star through the Missouri Sunshine Law. The officers who arrived at the scene in the early morning hours of May 4 spoke with overnight security, who informed them someone 'heard a noise and observed what appeared to be a bullet hole in a window,' Becchina said. The department refused to provide further investigative or supplemental reports, citing the ongoing investigation. The episode comes at a time in which the Chiefs have established a world-wide profile, with their games and star players increasing their international footprint. They are the subjects of a new ESPN documentary and have recently begun to refer to themselves as 'the world's team.' Reid is at the epicenter of that, a franchise turnaround coinciding with his arrival from Philadelphia in 2013. His office sits on the second floor of the three-story practice facility, overlooking the team's three practice fields to the north side. The facility resides inside the Truman Sports Complex, a stone's throw from GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. The facility, which includes the team's front office and corporate offices, has a security guard on site 24 hours per day, according to the organization. The Chiefs have said in the past that the safety and security of their employees remains a top priority. Within the last couple of months, the team has increased the amount of perimeter fencing surrounding the three practice fields. The facility is monitored by several cameras. As the team analyzes its stadium future, weighing options in Missouri and Kansas with a lease set to expire in 2031, it also is mulling the future of its practice facility — including whether to remain at its current address east of downtown or move across the state line, or to a different location in Missouri. It is not unusual for Reid to work deep into the night inside his office there, even into the early morning hours. It has become a habit that he considers part of the job — a job in which he has enjoyed immense success, particularly recently. Just three months before gunfire pierced his office window, Reid led the Chiefs to their third Super Bowl in a five-year span and first NFL championship repeat in two decades. And nine months after the shooting incident, he led the Chiefs back to the NFL's championship game. He is the fourth-winningest coach in league history. His 301 total victories are 100 more than anyone else currently leading an NFL franchise.
