Matthew Nagy (/ˈnɛɡi/ NEH-ghee or /ˈnæɡi/ NAG-ee;[1] born April 24, 1978) is an American football coach and former quarterback, who is the offensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL). He was the head coach of the Chicago Bears from 2018 to 2021.
As a quarterback, Nagy played college football for the University of Delaware from 1997 to 2000, where he set various school passing records. After failing to receive an NFL contract, Nagy joined the Arena Football League (AFL), where he spent six seasons playing for the New York Dragons, Carolina Cobras, Georgia Force, and Columbus Destroyers.
After finishing his playing career, Nagy became an assistant coach with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2009, spending five seasons in various offensive positions under head coach Andy Reid. In 2013, when Reid joined the Kansas City Chiefs, Nagy followed him to become the quarterbacks coach, a role he served until he was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2016. Nagy was named the Bears' head coach in 2018, and in that season led the team to their first NFC North division title and playoff appearance since 2010. He was part of the Chiefs' coaching staff that won Super Bowl LVII and Super Bowl LVIII.
