Arizona Cardinals Request To Interview Saints Coach For OC Role

The Arizona Cardinals had a tough time in 2022, with the injuries and disciplinary issues, but they are a team with plenty of talent, and now with a new Head Coach in the form of Jonathan Gannon, they've got a big chance to turn it around.

Before they can get to adding talent on this defence and weapons around Kyler Murray, the team will need to find two new Coordinators, and on Thursday, they requested to interview New Orleans Saints Running Backs coach Joel Thomas for the Offensive Coordinator role.

Thomas has been serving as the Saints RB's coach since 2015, working plenty under the fantastic offensive guidance of Sean Payton, so while it may be a risky hire, he will be one of many candidates for the role.
