Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Britt Reid was expelled from the team … when police investigated his involvement in a bad car accident that left a 5-year-old girl fighting for her life.
As we reported earlier, police say Reid admitted to consuming alcohol and Adderall before a bad accident with 3 cars on Thursday night around 9pm that left a child in a critical condition.
The child’s family members say the girl suffered severe brain damage during the accident … including swelling and internal bleeding. She has not woken up since the accident.
Reid – who did not travel with the Chiefs to Super Bowl LV in Tampa this past weekend – was officially placed on administrative leave, the team announced Tuesday.
“We are still gathering information about the incident, and we will continue to assist local authorities as requested,” the team said in a statement.
“Our focus remains on Ariel Young and her family. We have reached out to the family to offer our support and resources during this difficult time, and we will continue to pray for her recovery.”
