ESPN Predicts Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak as Leading Candidate for Cardinals Job

The early guess highlights Arizona’s push for a younger offensive coach, with Seattle’s playoff schedule likely to delay any interview.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Dan Graziano publicly predicted that Seattle offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak will be Arizona’s next head coach, framing it as an early, speculative call rather than a report of an agreement.
  • The Cardinals opened the search after firing Jonathan Gannon following a 15–36 record over three seasons.
  • Kubiak’s appeal is tied to Seattle’s 2025 offensive jump, with the Seahawks ranking eighth in yards per game (351.4) and points per game (25.3).
  • League rules restrict interviews for assistants on playoff teams, so Seattle’s postseason run could slow any formal discussions with Kubiak.
  • Reporting notes Arizona’s candidate pool is expanding and that the franchise may target an up-and-coming offensive coach given quarterback uncertainty and tougher competition for established names.
