Offensive guru Eric Bieniemy won Super Bowl LVII with the Kansas City Chiefs, but earlier this year he decided it was time to move on. 

Bieniemy is entering his first season as the Washington Commanders' assistant head coach and offensive coordinator. During his five years in Kansas City, Bieniemy helped develop one of the best offenses in the NFL. 

But, now that he is in Washington, there appears to be some growing concern surrounding the amount of intensity the 53-year-old coach brings to the table, according to Commanders head coach Ron Rivera.

Rivera noted that some Commanders players are "a little concerned" about Bieniemy's intensity level. Rivera did not name specific players who might have concerns.

But, Rivera did mention that he instructed any players with concerns to simply just go "talk to [Bieniemy]" in an effort to "understand what he's trying to get across to you."

Bieniemy's coaching style likely played a role in his successful run with the Chiefs, and Rivera isn't looking for his new offensive coordinator to make a drastic change in his coaching approach.
