Schwartz wasn’t the only former Chiefs player to rave about Bieniemy’s return.
Jeff Allen, an offensive lineman who spent six seasons with the Chiefs during his NFL career from 2012-2019, also spoke highly of Bieniemy.
“The organization, which includes players and coaches, is fully aware of the value EB brings to the team!” Allen wrote on X. “The stats speak for themselves. Just look at what he accomplished as the offensive coordinator in KC.”
Former Chiefs tight end Jason Dunn responded to a video that showed Bieniemy showing tough love to running back Adrian Peterson when they were both with the Vikings.
Peterson rushed for nearly 15,000 yards in the NFL and was a four-time All-Pro after a standout career at Oklahoma.
“This type of Coaching is what’s necessary for young men coming into this League,” Dunn wrote. “A Truthful and Stern Coach that will never let them be mediocre or allow them to shirk responsibility. Welcome Home EB my Brotha!!! #ChiefsKingdom”
