No 'space' for Eric Bieniemy to return to Chiefs? That's fine, he should consider another high-profile move anyway

LAS VEGAS — Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid gave reporters a bit of surprise on Wednesday.

It wasn’t a new recipe. It wasn’t his favorite cheeseburger. It was something more heartwarming with no indigestion involved. Reid revealed that former offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, who was recently let go by the Washington Commanders, spoke to the Chiefs prior to their AFC championship win over the Baltimore Ravens.

Reid noted that there isn’t space on his coaching staff for Bieniemy to come back, but his influence clearly has some level of value where he can be an asset for a team.
