Matt Nagy Emerges as Candidate for Titans Head-Coaching Job, per Reports

His prior work with general manager Mike Borgonzi is fueling interest, with Kansas City’s slump shaping perceptions of his candidacy.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Tennessee is expected to consider Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy, citing his established relationship with GM Mike Borgonzi from their Kansas City tenure.
  • Multiple outlets note the Chiefs’ 6-7 season could dampen Nagy’s prospects even as his name gains traction in league circles.
  • Tennessee dismissed Brian Callahan after a 1-5 start to 2025, installed Mike McCoy as interim coach, and reporting indicates he is unlikely to be retained.
  • Nagy has coordinated Kansas City’s offense since 2023 and previously led the Bears to two playoff appearances, earning the 2018 AP Coach of the Year award.
  • Coverage describes a wide-open search that includes defensive and offensive coordinators, with names such as Vance Joseph, Robert Saleh, Brian Flores, Kliff Kingsbury and Arthur Smith mentioned, while analysts add that Nagy’s departure would affect the Chiefs’ offensive continuity.
