Reports: Chiefs request OC interview with ex-OC Eric Bieniemy
- On Monday, the Kansas City Chiefs requested permission to interview Chicago Bears running backs coach Eric Bieniemy for their offensive coordinator vacancy, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.
- After a 6-11 finish, the Kansas City Chiefs are reshaping staff as Matt Nagy's contract expired after 2025 and he interviewed for head-coach openings, including a second Tennessee Titans interview this month.
- Eric Bieniemy served five seasons as the Chiefs' offensive coordinator after five as running backs coach, then spent a year with the Washington Commanders and coached at UCLA before returning to the NFL this past year.
- On January 8, the Chiefs fired wide receivers coach Connor Embree and on January 15 let Todd Pinkston go, while Louie Addazio and Alex Whittingham also departed.
- Observers say Eric Bieniemy is respected in the locker room and, as Matt Verderame noted, is `beloved by many of the players` while Patrick Mahomes has defended his demanding style.
