The Kansas City Chiefs hired Matt Nagy to be Andy Reid’s new senior assistant and quarterbacks coach. Nagy was jobless after being fired as the head coach of the Chicago Bears back in January.

This will be the second stint with the Chiefs for Nagy, who previously spent five years with the organization between 2013 through 2017. He was the QB coach for three seasons and offensive coordinator in his last two years before leaving to coach the Bears.

Nagy arrives in Kansas City as a replacement for Mike Kafka, who joined the New York Giants earlier this offseason to be Brian Daboll’s OC. His hiring shouldn’t come as a surprise, given his familiarity with the organization and the system Ried prefers.

Matt Nagy probably rejoins the Chiefs with a goal of rebuilding his damaged reputation. He was fired by the Bears after a disastrous 2020 season that saw the team struggle offensively and finished with a 6-11 record. Overall, Nagy went 34-31 in Chicago during the regular seasons and 0-2 in the playoffs.

Besides recruiting Nagy, the Chiefs have also managed to secure the stay of their offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy. It was previously believed that Bieniemy could decide to take a break in 2022 or pursue a head coaching job at college after not being able to land one in the NFL. However, according to new reports, he and the Chiefs managed to hammer out a new deal, and Bieniemy will return at least for the 2022 NFL season.

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy believes he still has time to make things right despite the chatter that he will be fired soon. Nagy talked about the possibility of losing his job during a press conference on Tuesday and labeled these reports as “not accurate.”

Media outlet The Patch recently published a story in which they claim that Nagy will be fired by Chicago following the team’s Thanksgiving game against the Detroit Lions. According to the report, which cites a top source close to the franchise, Nagy has already been informed about the decision on Monday.

Nagy, however, told reporters that he has “great communication with ownership” but that he didn’t talk with the Bears’ brass at all this week.

“We have not talked this week, and that was scheduled,” Nagy said. “We have constant communication—I always think it’s good and healthy—and we stayed on course with the bye week, and with the short turnaround with game prep, we have not (talked).”

The Bears currently have another disappointing season that sees them sitting third in the NFC North with a 3-7 record and almost zero chances to make the playoffs. The only reason they are not last is that the Lions are still searching for the first win in 2021.

But despite this, it is unlikely that the Bears opt to move from Nagy at this point of the season. The franchise never dismissed a head coach mid-season and is not expected to make such a move now. However, the offseason will be a whole other story.
