The Chiefs will be in the market for a new offensive coordinator, given the expiration of Matt Nagy’s contract and his reported interest in either obtaining a head coaching job elsewhere in the league or becoming an offensive coordinator somewhere that will allow him to also call plays.
Kingsbury has had mixed success in the NFL, producing the best season of Kyler Murray’s career in Arizona while serving as the Cardinals’ head coach and having overwhelming success with Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels in 2024.
NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero said Tuesday Kingsbury will receive head coaching interest this offseason, but “otherwise will have multiple OC options.”
In February 2024, when Kingsbury took over as offensive coordinator in Washington, he was asked what type of quarterback he wanted to work with.
“The Chiefs’ quarterback,” Kingsbury said a few months prior to Washington drafting Jayden Daniels, who won Offensive Rookie of the Year under Kingsbury’s coaching.
