Former Commanders Offensive Coordinator Joins Chiefs

Eric Bieniemy left the Kansas City Chiefs to become the offensive coordinator for the Washington Commanders in 2023, but faced challenges as the team struggled offensively and defensively, leading to a complete regime change. After a disappointing year, he moved to UCLA as offensive coordinator, where performance did not improve. In 2026, Bieniemy returned to the Chiefs, reuniting with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, as the team’s previous OC, Matt Nagy, departed. His tenure in Washington raised concerns about his game strategy, particularly his neglect of the running game.
