Overview
- Arizona finalized the NFL’s last head-coaching vacancy of this cycle, ending a nearly four-week search that began with Jonathan Gannon’s Jan. 5 firing after a 15-36 tenure.
- LaFleur was the Rams’ offensive coordinator for the past three seasons on a unit that led the NFL in yards and points in 2025 under McVay’s play-calling.
- He previously called plays with the New York Jets, though he did not have play-calling duties in Los Angeles.
- The Cardinals hold the No. 3 pick in April’s draft and feature young offensive pieces including Trey McBride, Marvin Harrison Jr. and Paris Johnson Jr.
- Quarterback is the organization’s central decision, with Kyler Murray under a massive contract after playing five games in 2025 and his status with the team unresolved.
