Five Things to Know About Matt Nagy

He’s learned under the best of the best.

Nagy and Chiefs Head Coach Andy Reid have been tied at the hip since Nagy started as a coaching intern in 2008.

The two have had two separate stints in Kansas City together and spent 2008-2012 together with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Nagy was with Reid for 10 years before leaving Kansas City to take the Chicago Bears head coaching job. After being let go by Chicago, Nagy returned to Kansas City, where he went from senior assistant/quarterbacks coach in 2022 to offensive coordinator for the last three seasons.

John Harbaugh was also a Reid disciple and that worked out well for Baltimore.

Reid believes Nagy is more than ready to take the helm of a team for the second time.

“He’s experienced an organization,” Reid said, per CBS Sports. “He’s experienced how you work with an owner, he’s experienced how you do the personnel side of it, how you have to work with a GM and how you have to be on the same page, together, with that. And he’s had to deal with players and coaches, and everybody has issues. So, there’s a human element to it. And he’s done all of that and I think he’s ready to roll, and get out there, and knock it out again.”
