It didn’t take long for the phone to ring. Once it started, it hasn’t stopped. Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy has been one of the hottest names in the rumor mill ever since several NFL head coaches started learning they were out of a job on Black Monday.
So far, the Arizona Cardinals, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New York Jets and Miami Dolphins have all called to inquire about Bieniemy’s interest and availability for an interview as each team searches for their newest head coach.
It was no surprise for some of the teams to reach out to Bieniemy given that it was clear they were making a change.
