Coach lost his job because the owners of the team found out he is gay

This former A+ list athlete didn’t lose his only NFL head coach chance because of his record.

It was not great, but Jeff Fisher hung on forever with not great.

Nope, our coach lost his job because the owners of the team found out he is gay.

They didn’t want the publicity from that, so used the record as a pretext.

Eric Bieniemy

American football coach and former player who is the offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League.

Alex Smith thinks it’s ‘ridiculous’ that Eric Bieniemy hasn’t been hired as an NFL head coach

Several NFL teams have filled their head coaching vacancies in recent weeks. However, one hot name that hasn’t landed a head coaching job is Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy.

In an interview with Terez Paylor of Yahoo Sports, former Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith can’t believe that Bieniemy hasn’t been hired for a head coaching position.

“I think it’s ridiculous that he hasn’t been hired yet,” Smith said. “I know the interview process is weird with the team still in it but regardless, I don’t see how you excuse it.”

Bieniemy and Smith both got to Kansas City in 2013 — Bienemy was the running backs coach until 2017 when he was promoted to offensive coordinator, the same season Smith was traded to the Washington Football Team. Smith believes that Bieniemy would be a great leader if he were to receive a head coaching opportunity. – Source
