Summary
Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy joked Tuesday that he had the blessing of his wife, Mia, to return to the team after she was shot at their Virginia home because, well, “I know I was driving her and a bunch of my family members crazy in the house.” Mia was shot the evening of July 26, and the couple's 27-year-old son, Elijah, was arrested. At one point, he called Chiefs general manager Brett Veach — who he knew was seated beside coach Andy Reid — and told him to give Big Red the phone. And it's been incredible to watch." Bieniemy was never far from camp, even while he was back home in Ashburn, Virginia.
Furthermore, Yes, she's doing great," Bieniemy said of his wife, speaking to reporters for the first time since she was rushed to the hospital with multiple wounds. But Washington struggled in his lone season there and the coaching staff was let go, and Bieniemy ended up spending a season at UCLA and last season coaching the running backs for the Chicago Bears. His court appearances remain delayed pending a mental health evaluation. “I'd like to say thank you to the Hunt family, the entire Chiefs family for the outpouring, the love and support that my family has received through this particular situation,” Eric Bieniemy said. “And with all that said, we're back to football.” While brash and demanding, Bieniemy is universally beloved within the Kansas City locker room.
In addition, Gillotte already has missed time with a hamstring injury. ... LB Drue Tranquill (back) and CB L'Jarius Snead (knee) were back in pads for the workout. Eric left the Chiefs right away to help his family through the crisis, and he returned to camp last week ahead of a preseason loss to the Rams. "So she was like, 'You have my blessing to leave,'" Eric said, "so it was time to get back." Elijah Bieniemy has been charged with malicious wounding, the use of a firearm in commission of a felony and discharge of a firearm inside a dwelling.
