The Kansas City Chiefs have been able to elevate coaches to get coaching opportunities with other NFL and college football teams. After the Tennessee Titans announced they fired coach Brian Callahan, the speclation of their next coach has immediately began.

One Chiefs coach has been named as a potential candidate for the position, so let’s take a deeper dive into who it is and what people are saying about it.

Kansas City Chiefs Coach Named as Potential Next Tennessee Titans Coach

Sports Illustrated’s senior writer Conor Orr explained some of the names that the Tennessee Titans should consider as the team’s next coach. The first name he mentioned was the Kansas City Chiefs’ offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and below is his reasoning behind the potential hire.

“There was a groundswell for Nagy building during the last cycle, with some wondering if the former Bears head coach—who actually had success with Mitch Trubisky and had his body of work placed under a different perspective during the fallout of the Matt Eberflus era—has served enough time in purgatory. While he is coaching the greatest quarterback of all time, the Chiefs’ offense has been functional enough despite a waning list of complementary skill-position players. Nagy is also a former quarterback and also has head coaching experience. He has worked with Borgonzi in the past.”

Matt Nagy was the 2018 AP Coach of the Year with the Chicago Bears, but was fired after four seasons with the team following the 2021 season. He has been the offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs for the previous three seasons, so this would be interesting to see if he would leave the team to get another head coaching position or stay with the Kansas City Chiefs.
