Overview
- Multiple outlets, citing NFL insider Jordan Schultz, report Kansas City is bringing in Murray, with no formal team announcement yet.
- Leaving Oklahoma after six seasons coaching the position (and a 2019 stop at Arizona), Murray will take his first NFL coaching job.
- Kansas City parted with RBs coach Todd Pinkston after finishing bottom 10 in rushing in 2025, as the offensive staff is retooled under returning coordinator Eric Bieniemy.
- The hire follows Kansas City’s unsuccessful inquiry into Raiders assistant Deland McCullough, who remained in Las Vegas.
- Oklahoma now must replace Murray, who coached 1,000‑yard college rushers and brings a playing résumé that includes the 2014 AP Offensive Player of the Year award.
