The Kansas City Chiefs’ offense has been a shell of its former self since the team hired former Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy to be its offensive coordinator.

But, on Thursday, an old friend became available and the defending Super Bowl champions could be willing to make a move to bring him back.

Former offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy became a highly sought-after prospect for a head coaching job after the 2022 season when he and head coach Andy Reid helped bring Kansas City its second Super Bowl victory of the Patrick Mahomes era.

In 2023, Bieniemy became the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator for the Washington Commanders before joining the UCLA Bruins in the same position.

However, according to a report by Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger on Thursday, UCLA relieved Bieniemy of his duties following a disappointing season and made him available for other teams.

With so much talk around Nagy’s performance as offensive coordinator, a reunion with Bieniemy could be in the works if the Chiefs plan on hoisting the Lombardi Trophy for a third straight season.
