Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy's wife is hospitalized in stable condition in Virginia following a shooting in their home on Sunday night, ESPN reported.

A woman identified by the outlet's sources as Mia Bieniemy, 57, was being treated for "serious injuries" in Loudoun County, where a spokesperson for the sheriff's office said police responded to a call at 7:32 p.m. ET Sunday in Ashburn, Va.

The Chiefs said they are aware of the incident involving the "family" of their 56-year-old assistant coach, who was with the club for training camp Sunday in St. Joseph, Mo. No further details were provided.

Bieniemy rejoined head coach Andy Reid's staff in January after previous stints with Kansas City as the running backs coach (2013-17) and offensive coordinator (2018-22). He helped the Chiefs win Super Bowls LIV and LVII.

He coached the Chicago Bears' running backs in 2025 and previously served as the OC for UCLA (2024), the Washington Commanders (2023) and his alma mater Colorado (2011-12).
