Washingtonian Times ^

Garrett Reid, the oldest son of Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid, was found dead Sunday morning in his room at the club’s training camp at Lehigh University. He was 29.

The police chief at Lehigh, Edward Shupp, said a 911 call was made at 7:20 a.m., and that Garrett Reid was deceased upon a policeman’s arrival at the campus dormitory.

“There were no suspicious activities,” said Shupp, who said a cause of death had not been determined.

The Eagles practiced after gathering for a team prayer, but Andy Reid was not present. Assistants Marty Mornhinweg and Juan Castillo ran the team’s walkthrough, and will oversee the team until Reid returns.

As I recall Coach Reid had his hands full with two sons over drug abuse, scrapes with the law. RIP

Looking at the picture - is it safe to assume he wasn’t married to a woman?

Most women wouldn’t abide that hair, so it would seem unlikely.

No, but it is evident he didn’t know where to get his hair cut.

Help here: takes form of menial job keeping records, equipment maintenance, spotting in wt room, stocking as needed, lots of PA duties. Lucky to have something to and thanks to Dad. Sad life story for sons. Wonder abt elder Reid’s’ parenting/priorities. And highly predictable.
