Overview
- Multiple outlets report Eric Bieniemy is expected to rejoin Kansas City as offensive coordinator, a post he held from 2018 to 2022 during two Super Bowl runs.
- On the New Heights podcast, Travis Kelce said he "can’t wait to see him back in the building," calling Bieniemy one of his favorite coaches and people.
- The Chiefs have not confirmed the hire, and current OC Matt Nagy was in the final year of his contract and has been interviewing for other NFL jobs.
- Kelce has not committed to playing in 2026, but his comments spurred fan and media speculation he may return after the team’s playoff miss this past season.
- Since leaving Kansas City, Bieniemy coordinated Washington in 2023, spent a season at UCLA, and coached Bears running backs in 2025.
