The Cardinals have interviewed a couple of in-house candidates for General Manager and they are expected to speak with an in-house head coaching candidate as well.

Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports that defensive coordinator Vance Joseph is expected to interview for the position next week. Joseph spent the last four seasons running the defense on Kliff Kingsbury’s staff.

Prior to joining the Cardinals, Joseph went 11-21 over two seasons as the head coach of the Broncos.

The Cardinals have been more active in their search for a new G.M. thus far, although they have requested and received permission to speak with Sean Payton about the coaching vacancy.

  1. Good DC. Tough run with Broncos earlier, but that has never stopped guys from getting second shots in the NFL.

  2. Teams need to use the Ray Handley scale when it comes to coaches. If you have less wins in two full seasons or more than Ray Handley you don’t get an interview, case closed.

  3. Oh, yeah, that’s the ticket. Instead of finding the next winning coach, you recycle a loser.

  4. Um, this is completely insane. The guy isn’t a good coach. You don’t have to give him a second chance you can keep looking. He was fired for a reason.

  5. Bring back Steve Wilks, I think he is already still under contact for his first time a round.

  6. “He was fired for a reason” “Recycle a loser”…. Y’all need to learn a book. These negative comments about former head coaches that failed previously getting another chance years later are ignorant of the success cycle of many current “Mount Rushmore” HCs in the league right now. Was Andy Reid a recycled loser candidate after going 5-12 his last two years with the Eagles and getting… wait for it…. fired? How about Pete Carroll after getting (wait for it) fired by the Patriots? Both have rings. Both learned a lot on their journey. Life is like that man.
