Kansas City Chiefs assistant Eric Bieniemy is reportedly a top candidate for the Washington Commanders’ offensive coordinator job as debate over whether he’s been "screwed" out of head-coaching positions rose again.
Bieniemy went through another cycle without landing a head-coaching job even as the team won the Super Bowl for the second time since the 2019 season.
The NFL Network reported Wednesday he’s the "top candidate" for the Commanders position. Bieniemy has been in the Chiefs’ organization since 2013.
He started as the team’s running backs coach and was elevated to offensive coordinator in 2018. But as he’s been a coaching candidate for teams over the last few seasons, he’s failed to attain the new role of head coach.
