Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy acknowledged his disappointment over failing to get a head-coaching job despite multiple interviews in recent seasons.

"In reality it's tough," he said. "But I don't let that keep me from doing what I do. I'm still alive, I'm breathing and I have an opportunity to work for a championship team. That's the beauty of it.

"I don't want any pity. This is who I am. I'm going to keep pushing, keep knocking because when it's all said and done with, I know who I am and I am comfortable with the person I'm striving to be."

The last two offensive coordinators under Andy Reid, Doug Pederson and Matt Nagy, have become head coaches.

"I've just got to go get it," Bieniemy said when asked what he needs to do to land a head-coaching position. "I'm not seeking any comfort. I haven't gotten it for whatever reason. It [doesn't] matter. I'm going to keep knocking on that door and I'm going to keep working my ass off to make sure that it happens. My job this year is to make sure we take care of business that needs to be taken care of today to help us achieve the goal down the road. And then it's time for me when it's presented to just go and get the job.

"You can always be better. I'm always going to take a look at myself first. I always make sure that I'm checking everything and checking every box. ... Personally I have to make sure that I'm always evolving because if you're not evolving you become like the dinosaurs and you're extinct."
