With the Kansas City Chiefs moving forward with Eric Bieniemy as the offensive coordinator, the coach who formerly held the position has reportedly found his next opportunity.
Harbaugh is a disciple of Big Red, however. In 1998, Harbaugh’s first opportunity to coordinate the Philadelphia Eagles’ special teams came in a disappointing, final season of head coach Ray Rhodes’ tenure. Reid was hired the following offseason and kept Harbaugh on for the next nine seasons until he landed the head coaching job for the Baltimore Ravens in 2008.
2008 was Nagy’s first year as a coaching intern for the Eagles, missing the overlap with Harbaugh by one season. Now, the two will team up to turn around a division rival of each of their original NFL teams.
With the Reid connection, it will be worth monitoring Nagy’s desire to bring assistant coaches with him to New York from Kansas City. When Bieniemy spoke with local media about the future of the staff last week, offensive line coach Andy Heck was the only name dropped among the offensive coaches slated to return from the 2025 season.
Pass-game coordinator Joe Bleymaier has been with the Chiefs for 10 seasons, starting as an offensive quality control coach in 2016. He was also the team’s wide receivers coach for the final two years under Bieniemy’s initial tenure, then moved to his current role under Nagy’s leadership for three seasons.
Quarterbacks coach David Girardi has been in Kansas City since joining the team as an offensive quality control coach in 2018, the first season of Bieniemy’s first stint as the offensive coordinator. He was promoted to quarterbacks coach when Nagy was hired as offensive coordinator before the 2023 season.
Assistant quarterbacks coach Dan Williams started with the Chiefs as a coaching intern in 2019 before two years as the assistant to the head coach. Before Nagy’s first season as offensive coordinator in 2023, Williams was promoted to his current position.
We will provide updates on whether the Giants poach from the Chiefs’ coaching staff to fill out the offensive assistants under Nagy.
