The Kansas City Chiefs have officially hired Eric Bieniemy as their new offensive coordinator, per @RapSheet. The move, announced Friday, marks a high-profile return for the veteran coach who previously spent five seasons in the same role under head coach Andy Reid.
Bieniemy returns to Kansas City to replace Matt Nagy, who the team officially moved on from earlier today. The hire marks a significant homecoming for Bieniemy, who served as the offensive coordinator during the Chiefs' Super Bowl LIV and LVII championship victories. Following a 2025 campaign where the offense struggled to maintain its elite standard, the organization has opted for a leader with established chemistry alongside quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
The coaching change is part of a rapid series of moves across the league. On Thursday, Jan. 22, Robert Saleh officially signed his contract to become the head coach of the Tennessee Titans. Additionally, former quarterback Philip Rivers is reportedly interviewing for the Buffalo Bills head coaching vacancy as the NFL coaching carousel continues to spin.
