One of the NFL's hottest head coaching candidates is already receiving a lot of interest.
Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy is virtually interviewing with the Atlanta Falcons and Detroit Lions Monday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The New York Jets have also reportedly requested to meet with Bieniemy.
The 51-year-old offensive coordinator has received widespread praise for his role in turning the Chiefs into an offensive powerhouse. Bieniemy has been Kansas City's offensive coordinator since 2018 after spending five seasons as the running backs coach.
The Chiefs finished first in points per game in 2018 (35.3), fifth in 2019 (28.2) and sixth this season (29.6).
Another team that could potentially reach out to Bieniemy is the L.A. Chargers, who fired Anthony Lynn on Monday morning.
