KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Chiefs will soon be taking a step they haven’t in many years by installing a young player, Patrick Mahomes II, as their new starting quarterback.
That’s enough offensive change for one year. The Chiefs don’t need any more.
So the promotion of running backs coach Eric Bieniemy to offensive coordinator, replacing Matt Nagy, makes sense. Since he’s been with coach Andy Reid the past five seasons and even played for him many years ago with the Philadelphia Eagles, he knows the system inside and out and will make the transition from Nagy about as seamless as it can be.
