ASHBURN, Va. -- The Washington Commanders are working on finalizing a deal to make Eric Bieniemy the team's new offensive coordinator, sources told ESPN on Friday, confirming multiple reports.
The sides have agreed in principle on a two-year deal and are now working on the language of the contract, sources said. Bieniemy spent Friday talking to Washington's current assistants and will speak with the rest on Saturday, according to sources. He's expected to be in Washington for an introductory news conference next week.
Bieniemy spent the past five seasons as the Kansas City Chiefs' offensive coordinator, helping oversee an offense that powered two Super Bowl championships -- including one last weekend.
