Cardinals Scramble for New Defensive Coordinator
5 Feb
Summary
- Cardinals hired Nathaniel Hackett as offensive coordinator.
- Three candidates are being interviewed for defensive coordinator.
- Candidates include Charlie Bullen, Aubrey Pleasant, and Dino Vasso.
The Arizona Cardinals have been exceptionally busy in their coaching staff's recent activity. Following the introduction of Mike LaFleur and the subsequent hiring of Nathaniel Hackett as offensive coordinator earlier this week, the team is now intensely searching for a new defensive coordinator.
Several prominent names have emerged as potential candidates for the defensive coordinator position. The Cardinals have formally requested interviews with Charlie Bullen, who previously served as interim defensive coordinator for the New York Giants and has prior ties to the Cardinals. Aubrey Pleasant, an experienced coach with a decade in the NFL across multiple franchises, is also on the interview list.
Additionally, the team is set to interview Dino Vasso, the current defensive backs coach for the Houston Texans. Vasso has been recognized for his contributions to the Texans' secondary, which has been lauded as the best passing defense in the NFL. The team's focused pursuit of these individuals highlights their commitment to strengthening their coaching staff.
