<\/p>\n
Despite the horror season endured by the\u00a0Chiefs, which resulted in a 6-11 record and\u00a0missing the playoffs\u00a0for the first time since 2014, current offensive coordinator Nagy is being sought after.<\/p>\n
He is set to interview with the\u00a0Tennessee Titans\u00a0in the coming days.<\/p>\n
One person being touted to replace Nagy is Kliff Kingsbury.<\/p>\n
Kingsbury was the offensive coordinator for the\u00a0Washington Commanders\u00a0last season, but mutually agreed to part ways with the franchise after he met with head coach Dan Quinn earlier this week.<\/p>\n
Kingsbury, who was the former head coach of the\u00a0Arizona Cardinals, had one year left on his contract and is expected to find a new\u00a0NFL\u00a0team soon.<\/p>\n
Some reports claim that Kingsbury is expected to explore head coach opportunities, but could be lured to the Chiefs should the franchise approach him.<\/p>\n
Before his NFL coaching career, Kingsbury was the head coach of the\u00a0Texas<\/span>\u00a0Tech Red Raiders between 2013-2018<\/p>\n He coached Mahomes for all three of his college years while at the university.<\/p>\n ESPN’s Nate Taylor claimed the Chiefs would move for Kingsbury if Mahomes wants him.<\/p>\n \u201cIt would be difficult for\u00a0Andy Reid\u00a0not to go with Kliff Kingsbury, if that\u2019s what\u00a0Patrick Mahomes\u00a0wanted,\u201d Taylor told 96.5 The Fan.<\/p>\n Many have speculated that Mahomes is deeply frustrated with the Chiefs after their disappointing season.<\/p>\n Such rumors intensified after his cryptic post earlier this week, which showed him walking off the field and looking dejected.<\/p>\n Perhaps Mahomes’ mood will improve should he reunite with Kingsbury next season.<\/p>\n However, the pair didn’t have enjoy much success in college together, with a 16-21 record and zero bowl wins.<\/p>\n With that said, the superstar quarterback, who is currently\u00a0recovering from a torn ACL, has previously hailed Kingsbury.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s one of the first people that truly believed in me playing the quarterback position,\u201d two-time MVP Mahomes told reporters in 2025 ahead of a game against the Commanders.<\/p>\n \u201cHe gave me a ton of advice of refining me, but letting me still just be me and play to my strengths. A great coach, a great person that I still stay in touch with.<\/p>\n “He let me just go out there and be myself and play the way that got me there. I think that\u2019s something that is special about him as a coach.\u201dAndy Reid has previously said – via the NFL Network’s Taylor Bisicotti – that Kingsbury was a\u00a0huge influence in why the Chiefs drafted Mahomes\u00a0in 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Patrick Mahomes could be set for a reunion with a familiar face.
