Jonathan Gannon

GB Head Coach

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Packers hired former Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon as defensive coordinator.

Gannon lasted three years as the Cardinals’ head coach before the team fired him at the end of the 2025 season. Gannon’s defenses finished 31st, 15th, and 29th in points allowed. While the Cardinals undoubtedly lacked talent on Gannon’s side of the ball, his inability to string two decent seasons together on defense was one of the many reasons Arizona showed him the door. Gannon is replacing Jeff Hafley, who was hired as the Dolphins’ head coach. The hope is that with a full cupboard on defense, headlined by Micah Parsons, Gannon will get better results in Green Bay.
Anthony Campanile

JAC Defensive Coordinator

Cardinals will host a second interview with Jaguars defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile for the team’s head coaching vacancy.

Campanile, after coaching one of the league’s best defenses in 2025, seems to be the favorite for the Arizona head coaching job after the team parted ways with Jonathan Gannon. Campanile has interviewed with a numbers of teams, including the Ravens and Dolphins. Jacksonville in 2025 ranked second in takeaways and allowed the NFL’s third lowest rushing success rate and the 11th lowest drop back success rate.
Drew Terrell

ARI Coaching Staff

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Falcons interviewed Cardinals pass game coordinator Drew Terrell for their open offensive coordinator position.

Terrell worked under new Lions offensive coordinator Drew Petzing in Arizona and is now interviewing at other spots with most of the coaching staff on the Cardinals experiencing turnover this offseason. The 34-year-old already interviewed with the Commanders and Chargers for their offensive coordinator roles this offseason and wrapped up another interview with the Falcons. Atlanta just completed hiring Kevin Stefanski as head coach and is now looking to round out the rest of the staff. Terrell may not call plays under Stefanski but his experience as pass game coordinator for Kyler Murray and Jacoby Brissett may be valued for the Falcons’ next starter.
Drew Terrell

ARI Coaching Staff

Chargers interviewed Cardinals passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach Drew Terrell for their offensive coordinator vacancy.

Former Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing landed on his feet after less than two weeks on the open market following his termination in Arizona, hired by the Lions for the same position. Terrell, who worked under Petzing with the Cardinals, has also been a hot commodity this coaching cycle after picking up interviews with the Commanders and Chargers. Terrell has coached at the NFL level for eight season as he attempts to land an offensive coordinator gig for the first time in his career.
Robert Saleh

SF Defensive Coordinator

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports the Cardinals have scheduled a second interview on Tuesday with 49ers DC Robert Saleh for their head-coaching vacancy.

Saleh is currently interviewing with the Titans for their head coaching vacancy. If he lives without a deal, he will be on his way to Arizona for a second meeting with the Cardinals on Tuesday. Saleh has made the rounds this coaching cycle, meeting with four different teams to discuss their head-coaching vacancies, with the Cardinals being the first team to put in a second request. The former Jets head coach returned to the Bay Area in 2025 to lead the Niners defense to a 13th-ranked finish in points allowed, and is clearly a valued candidate on the coaching market despite going 20-36 in his first try as a head coach.
Arthur Smith

PIT Offensive Coordinator

Cardinals will interview Steelers OC Arthur Smith for their head-coaching vacancy on Friday.

The news comes from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac, who notes that Smith “will also interview with the Detroit Lions to be their offensive coordinator.” The implication seems to be that Smith will speak to the Lions on Friday as well.
Robert Saleh

SF Defensive Coordinator

Cardinals will interview 49ers DC Robert Saleh for their head-coaching vacancy tonight.

The 49ers currently list six combined linebackers and defensive linemen on injured reserve, including defensive stars Fred Warner and Nick Bosa. Saleh has helped keep the 49ers’ Super Bowl aspirations intact in his first season back with his old team despite the personnel losses. His successes have earned him head-coaching interview requests with four different teams. Good for him.
Arthur Smith

PIT Offensive Coordinator

Cardinals requested an interview with Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith for the team’s head coaching vacancy.

Smith, still technically the Steelers’ offensive coordinator, is apparently a hot name on the head coaching circuit right now. The Titans are slated to talk with Smith — who once coached Tennessee’s offense — about their head coaching vacancy and now the Cardinals are interested after firing Jonathan Gannon after his disastrous run as Arizona’s head coach. Smith would likely oversee a rebuild in Arizona, with the team seemingly intent on moving on from Kyler Murray. A run-heavy play caller, Smith’s Steelers ranked sixth in rushing success rate and seventh in rushing EPA in 2025.
Matt Burke

HOU Defensive Coordinator

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports the Cardinals have requested to interview Texans defensive coordinator Matt Burke for their open head coaching role.

At the helm of the Texans defense with head coach DeMeco Ryans for the past three seasons, Burke has helped craft a hard-hitting, powerful defensive line and secondary. He took over defensive play-calling from Ryans towards the start of a season that saw the Texans allow the least yards and second-least points of any team in the NFL, while ranking top-seven in both sacks and interceptions. The Cardinals just moved off a defensive head coach and are now looking to interview another one, requesting an interview with Burke fresh off a two-touchdown defensive performance in the Wild Card Round.
Jesse Minter

LAC Defensive Coordinator

Cardinals, Dolphins, Falcons and Giants each requested an interview with Chargers DC Jesse Minter for their head-coaching vacancies.

Everybody’s doing it. Not enough people are talking about the dangers of peer pressure forcing you to interview Jesse Minter for their head-coaching vacancy at home. Here are the signs you need to look out for if your teens come home wanting to interview Jesse Minter. There are now eight teams with head-coaching vacancies and all eight have requested an interview with the 42 year-old defensive coordinator who held Drake Maye’s offense to 16 points in the AFC Wild Card round. We’re not sure if Minter will get a head-coaching job this cycle, but he’s definitely going to lead all coaches in words used in interviews.
