Over the years, Bieniemy has failed to get offers that many — including the Chiefs — believe he deserves as a head-coaching candidate.
The all-time leading rusher at the University of Colorado, Bieniemy played nine years in the NFL before turning to coaching, first at a Denver high school, then at his alma mater and UCLA before the Minnesota Vikings brought him on as running backs coach in 2006. In 2011, Bieniemy returned to Colorado to serve as offensive coordinator, and he took the running backs coach job with the Chiefs in 2013.
Mahomes’s growth has come in tandem with Bieniemy’s, and each has credited the other for the team’s success. The Chiefs’ success has continually raised questions about why Bieniemy hasn’t received a head-coaching opportunity.“It’s so past deserved,” Mahomes said. “He’s done everything the right way. He’s been a part of this offense and this team for so long, holds everybody accountable, is creative in making up plays for us. I don’t know why he hasn’t been hired, but it’s been great for us.”
