Report: Eric Bieniemy interview with Jags set for Wednesday

Earlier on Tuesday, we relayed Josina Anderson’s report about the Jacksonville Jaguars looking to interview Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy — and it appears they got it. Per Anderson’s latest update, the interview will take place on Wednesday.

Bieniemy is arguably the most popular name amongst fans when it comes to coaching candidates. Of course, the reason for that is because of what the Chiefs have built offensively with former league MVP Patrick Mahomes and company, who finished the regular season first in passing (312.8 YPG) and total offense (415.8 YPG).

With the draft capital the Jags have (including the No. 1 pick), a projected amount of $74.4 million in cap space (the most in the NFL), and patient ownership, Bieniemy and the Jags could be a good fit. If the Jags could get Trevor Lawrence in the 2020 NFL Draft, Bieniemy would especially be a good fit to be paired with the star signal-caller.
