The Jacksonville Jaguars head coaching search drives on with another interview scheduled, this time with Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bienemy, according to a report by Josina Anderson.
I'm told the #Jaguars are currently in the process of scheduling a head coach interview with #Chiefs OC Eric Bienemy, per source.

Bienemy has been a hot name in the head coaching hunt for the past two seasons, shockingly missing out on a chance to get hired last offseason despite some interviews. This season Bienemy is seen as one of the top candidates to get a gig and has already been scheduled for multiple interviews, so we can now add the Jaguars to that list.
The current Chiefs offensive coordinator is someone many Jaguars fans have been wanting as the main target for a head coach since it was clear Doug Marrone was going to be fired and the Jaguars would be landing one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2021 NFL Draft, in large part due to Bienemy’s work with current NFL superstar, Patrick Mahomes.
