Andy & Tammy Reid: We’re An American Family

Andy Reid: “I went to all the counseling sessions with him, the whole rehab program with him. They educate you. It was like learning Spanish in six weeks, without knowing a word of it. It's an epidemic that has attacked America. I was sitting there, in counseling, with good people. They are not bad people, it encompasses everybody. We've accepted public criticism as a family even when it's not true. We've dealt with Garrett's situation for a long time, and we've done it through Super Bowls and championships. And it's new to a lot of people, but it's not new to us.”

Tammy Reid: “We do have house payments, he does need to have a job. Any other dad, any other man who has things going on in his family, has not had it questioned whether he's going to retire or step down from his job. The CEO of any major company, it would never be in question. We raised these boys. We taught them to pray, taught them to ride their bikes -- you see this potential in him, and you're just not going to give up. You're thinking, let's try one more time. Because that's what you do as a parent. You think, OK, it didn't work the last couple of times, but there's still hope.”
