Andy Reid breaks down in tears as new trailer for Kansas City Chiefs' behind-the-scenes documentary airs
'The Worldwide Leader in Sports' put their cameras inside the locker room of the Chiefs as they embarked on an ill-fated quest to achieve the first 'three-peat' in NFL history.
The trailer showed more footage from the field, from the locker rooms, and from interviews with players and coaches as well.
One snippet even showed Reid, the head coach of the Chiefs, choking up and holding his hands up as tears started to well up.
It's unclear what preceded that moment, but Reid could be heard in the trailer saying, 'It's our life, and it's an emotional game.'
The docuseries, titled 'The Kingdom' is set for an August 14 release - with episodes one and two airing at 9:00pm Eastern time.
In 2024, the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs aimed to make history by becoming the first NFL team to win three straight Super Bowls.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid was seen choking up in a trailer for ESPN's upcoming docuseries
While the hopes for the three-peat died at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX, the Chiefs' dynasty hasn't fallen off just yet.
Kansas City just recently began their training camp to prepare for a new season of football.
But they're already set to be down one of their key pieces, as Reid confirmed on Sunday.
Last week, wide receiver Rashee Rice was sentenced to 30 days in jail for causing a chain-reaction crash that left multiple people injured on a Dallas highway last year. Rice was filmed fleeing the scene after the smash on March 30, 2024.
While Rice has freedom on when he serves time, the ruling from authorities also clears the way for the NFL to ban him before the start of the 2025 season. But as it stands, Reid doesn't know for certain if Rice will be suspended, even though it is anticipated.
He said he is doing his best to make it business as usual as his team reports for camp on Monday. Reid also has to consider that Rice is returning from an ACL tear that curtailed his season in the early stages last year.
'We're going to progress as normal with him,' Reid said on Sunday night. 'He'll go in and take all the reps that he'll normally take.
'We always rotate that position. Depending on what happens here with the future - whoever needs to play will step in and know what they are doing and be in good shape to do it.'

Saniyah Hall, No. 1 recruit in 2026, commits to USC
July 26 - Saniyah Hall, considered the No. 1 prospect in the women's basketball Class of 2026, committed to Southern California on Friday. "I would say it felt like home," Hall said in her announcement on ESPN. "The girls there are so fun to be around. The coaches ... have high support, but (head coach Lindsay Gottlieb) is definitely there to just support me and I've built a relationship with her -- she's a great coach." The commitment means the Trojans have signed three of the past four players ranked No. 1 in the country by ESPNW, following JuJu Watkins (2023) and Jasmine "Jazzy" Davidson (2025). Hall chose USC over rival UCLA and North Carolina. Hall is listed at 6-foot-2 and can play guard or forward. A native of Lorain, Ohio, she transferred from Florida's Montverde Academy to SPIRE Academy in Ohio for her senior year of high school. She was named MVP at the FIBA U19 Women's World Cup this summer, where she played alongside Davidson on Team USA as they won gold. Hall averaged 19.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 2.9 steals in the tournament. Gottlieb has led USC to No. 1 seeds in the NCAA Tournament in consecutive years. The Trojans fell in the Elite Eight both times. --Field Level Media

Kyle Schwarber homers twice as Phillies outslug Yankees
July 26 - Kyle Schwarber homered twice and J.T. Realmuto hit a tiebreaking three-run blast in the seventh inning as the visiting Philadelphia Phillies pulled away for a 12-5 victory over the New York Yankees on Friday. Schwarber hit his 35th and 36 home runs, belting a tying two-run shot off New York starter Will Warren in the fifth and a two-run drive off Ian Hamilton in the eighth for an 8-5 lead. Schwarber notched his 1,000th career hit on his first homer and recorded his 33rd career multi-homer game. He has six home runs in seven games since the All-Star break. Schwarber's second homer occurred after Philadelphia entered the seventh with a 3-2 deficit after Giancarlo Stanton homered to put the Yankees on top in the sixth. The Phillies quickly began a rally by getting singles from Trea Turner and Schwarber off Tim Hill (3-3). After Bryce Harper advanced the runners with a groundout to first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, Luke Weaver took over on the mound. Nick Castellanos hit a grounder to Goldschmidt, who was playing slightly off the bag, and the first baseman's throw sailed high and past catcher Austin Wells as Turner scored the tying run. Following Goldschmidt's third error of the season, Realmuto hammered Weaver's 0-1 changeup into the left field seats for a 6-3 lead. Bryson Stott contributed a two-run single in a four-run ninth inning for the Phillies, who finished with 14 hits and put up 10 runs in the final three innings. Turner capped the scoring with an RBI triple. Cody Bellinger and Wells hit solo homers off Philadelphia starter Taijuan Walker in the first two innings. New York's Anthony Volpe homered in the seventh off Jordan Romano before Aaron Judge hit a sacrifice fly to get the Yankees within 6-5. Walker allowed three runs on six hits in 5 2/3 innings. He struck out three and walked none. Tanner Banks (3-2) notched the final out of the sixth before Romano allowed two runs in the seventh. Orion Kerkering pitched the eighth and before Philadelphia's second four-run inning. Warren gave up two runs on five hits in 5 2/3 innings. The right-hander struck out seven and walked three. By taking the opener of a three-game series, the Phillies earned their third win in four games. The Yankees, who lost for the sixth time in nine games, acquired Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies on Friday to be their everyday third baseman. --Field Level Media

Twins' Zebby Matthews and three relievers blank Nationals
July 26 - Zebby Matthews pitched six scoreless innings, Byron Buxton drove in the game's lone run, and the Minnesota Twins held on for a 1-0 win over the Washington Nationals on Friday night in Minneapolis. Royce Lewis ripped a double for the only extra-base hit for the Twins, who won the series opener despite tallying only three hits. Buxton hit a sacrifice fly to produce the only run. Daylen Lile went 2-for-3 with a double and a stolen base to lead Washington. Matthews (2-2) turned in his most impressive performance of the season. The Twins' right-hander limited the Nationals to two hits, walked none and struck out seven. Nationals left-hander MacKenzie Gore (4-10) absorbed a hard-luck loss in a season that has been filled with them. He gave up one run on one hit in five innings, but he struggled with command as he issued six walks and struck out four. Twins relievers Danny Coulombe, Griffin Jax and Jhoan Duran combined for three scoreless innings to preserve the shutout. Duran pitched the ninth to collect his 16th save. The Twins broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fifth. Matt Wallner started the scoring opportunity when he drew a one-out walk and advanced to second on a wild pitch by Gore. Brooks Lee drew a walk in the next at-bat, and Wallner moved to third base on yet another wild pitch by Gore. Buxton delivered with runners on first and third and one out. He hit a sacrifice fly to left to drive in Wallner and put the Twins on top 1-0. Washington threatened to score in the eighth but could not push a run across. Lile hit a one-out double and swiped third. Jacob Young drew a walk to give Washington runners on first and third with two outs for C.J. Abrams. The Twins' Jax escaped the jam when he got Abrams to fly out to right to end the inning. --Field Level Media
