For most of the offseason, rumors of strife between Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy and the team have persisted. There have been a couple questionably-sourced articles that have suggested that Bieniemy and Reid don't see eye-to-eye anymore, and that the former also doesn't get along with Patrick Mahomes. Talking to the media on Tuesday afternoon, head coach Andy Reid opened his press conference with a swift and decisive statement which put those rumors to bed.
"This whole thing with Eric Bieniemy has gotten kind of fabricated," Reid said. "We were on vacation over the two weeks and I came back and all of a sudden I didn't like Eric, and Eric didn't like me, and Pat Mahomes everybody else. That's not the case. We all get along good. I'm glad he's back with us and rolling. I thought he would potentially get a head coaching job, which I would have been happy with too, but that's not how that worked out. Anyway, I just wanted to put that to rest."
