As first reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport earlier this week, the Baltimore Ravens completed an interview Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy for their head coaching vacancy today. This follows completed interviews with Vance Joseph, Davis Webb, Klint Kubiak, and Kevin Stefanski. The Ravens have requested to interview multiple other candidates, as well.
Nagy, 47, has a long history in the NFL dating back to 2008 when he started with the Philadelphia Eagles as a coaching intern. He stayed with the Eagles for a few more years in offensive assistant roles before joining the Chiefs in 2013 as their quarterbacks coach. Nagy was promoted to Kansas City’s offense coordinator in 2016 and 2017 before he was hired by the Chicago Bears as their new head coach in 2018.
Nagy’s head coaching stint with the Bears ended in 2021 after the team opted to part ways with him. In his four years as Chicago’s head coach, the Bears went 34-31 overall with one playoff appearance. Nagy won Coach of the Year in 2018 after leading the Bears to a 12-4 record and No. 3 seed in the NFC but failed to finish better than .500 over the next three years.
He then re-joined Kansas City in 2022 as the Chiefs’ quarterback coach and a senior offensive assistant. The following year, he became their offensive coordinator again and has held that role for the past three seasons. During his most recent stint as the team’s OC, the Chiefs made two Super Bowl appearances and won one in 2023 before missing the playoffs this year.
Kansas City’s offense has been less potent and consistent in recent seasons than they were earlier in the first half of the Andy Reid-Patrick Mahomes era. Reid, Mahomes, and Travis Kelce have long headlined the Chiefs’ offensive success. Having served under Reid’s tutelage and worked with the aforementioned stars, Nagy has likely acquired valuable knowledge and perspective — which could equip him to get another shot as a head coach.
