Andy Reid didn’t just end up with a wedding story about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift - he ended up with Adam Sandler’s marriage advice, too.
The Chiefs coach was in Salt Lake City on Sunday as the guest narrator for a “Music and the Spoken Word” broadcast tied to America’s 250th anniversary, and during a news conference for the event, he opened up about the ceremony Sandler officiated at Madison Square Garden. Details about Kelce and Swift’s wedding have been limited, but Reid offered one of the few public glimpses into what went down.
According to Reid, Sandler kept things simple.
“Adam Sandler conducted the service there and he told them to keep kissing,” Reid said. “So, in its simplest form, that’s a good thing.
It’s hard to argue when you give your wife a kiss, or your wife gives you a kiss. And make sure you do it every day, every minute that you have an opportunity to do it.
Knock it out, and you won’t have problems.
“In a simple, hysterical way, he was phenomenal. He’s crazy, but he did a great job in getting them married with a lot of humor. But, that part there I thought” pretty good advice in its simplest form.”
Reid’s wife, Tammy, was alongside him Sunday and said the couple’s advice lines up with what works in her own marriage.
“And he does that,” Tammy said.
She also pointed to communication as the other big piece.
“I would say communicate, which is big. I mean, we kind of live two different lives,” Tammy Reid added, per Edler’s story.
“He’s at football and I’m at home and I’m doing the kids and stuff. So I think just communicate, know where everybody is all the time and just - that’s the way you stay involved with your family.
But yeah, talk about everything.”

Travis Kelce Hit With Serious Off Field Twist At Brutal Time
Travis Kelces off-field calendar has been every bit as crowded as his football one, and now it includes a federal trademark fight tied to the Kansas City steakhouse he co-owns with Patrick Mahomes. The case centers on 1587 Prime, a name built around the pairs jersey numbers, and it has put the Chiefs star in the middle of a dispute with 1587 Sneakers over who gets to use that branding.
The timing adds another layer to an already awkward situation, with the legal back-and-forth arriving just as Kelces personal life has been in the spotlight for another reason. The sneaker company says the players can be sued in New York because of national advertising campaigns, while Kelce and Mahomes are pushing back on the case there, leaving the venue question as the next key wrinkle to watch.

Sean Payton Nearly Pulled Off The Most Absurd Broncos Move Yet
Sean Payton has never been shy about thinking big in Denver, but a new report from ESPNs Seth Wickersham suggests one of his most audacious ideas never got past the drawing board. According to the report, Payton explored the possibility of bringing Bill Belichick to the Broncos in a temporary role, a strange arrangement built around Belichicks pursuit of the NFLs all-time coaching wins record before Payton would eventually step back in.
It is the kind of concept that sounds more like a late-night what-if than an actual staffing plan, and apparently it never advanced because it was simply too complicated. Still, it says plenty about the lengths some coaches will consider when legacy and history are in play, especially with Belichick now at North Carolina after his long run in New England.
