Kansas City Chiefs defensive back Tyrann Mathieu sent his well-wishes to Andy Reid after the head coach was taken from Arrowhead Stadium via ambulance.

Mathieu encouraged fans to pray for Reid and called his coach “one of the best men and teachers” he had ever crossed paths with.

I’m praying for my Head Coach & I’m hoping you can send up prayers with me!! One of the best men & teachers I’ve been around!!! GOD please show us your mercy!

Reid was described as ill following the Chiefs’ loss to the Chargers, and the ambulance trip sounded mostly precautionary. The 63-year-old had coached Sunday’s game like normal prior to falling ill.

Mathieu is in his third season with Kansas City, all of which have been under Reid’s tutelage.
