3 Chiefs Coaches Who Will Be Gone After the Super Bowl

There's a chance these three coaches won't be back in Kansas City next season whether the Chiefs defeat or lose to the Eagles in Super Bowl 59.

2. Steve Spagnuolo, Defensive Coordinator

The Chiefs likely wouldn't have won three Super Bowls (and a potential fourth) since 2019 if it wasn't for defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. Kansas City has boasted a top-10 scoring defense in four of his six seasons with the franchise, which includes allowing just 19.2 PPG (4th) in 2024.

Nevertheless, Father Time is undefeated and Spagnuolo isn't as young as he once was. The Whitinsville, MA native just turned 65 years old in December and even though he's younger than Reid (66), the former is at the point where he might contemplate retirement.

If he decides to continue coaching, Spagnuolo hasn't hidden the fact that he still wants to be a head coach. Chiefs fans would love to see him run the team one day, however, that seems unlikely to happen soon given that Reid doesn't plan to retire in the near future.

The only head coaching vacancy at the moment is with the New Orleans Saints, so there's still an opportunity for him to be a head coach in 2025. Even though he was fired as the Saints DC over a decade ago, money talks and New Orleans management might be willing to pay a premium price to hire a coach with at least four Super Bowl rings on his hand.

Another Lombardi Trophy victory could likely convince Spagnuolo to stick around for the 2025 campaign, but don't be surprised if this is the end of the line, too.
