The Arizona Cardinals continued the process of filling their head-coaching vacancy with an in-person interview of former Panthers and Commanders head coach Ron Rivera, according to a report from The Athletic.
Rivera, 64, is currently the general manager of his alma mater Cal's football program. He has a 102-103-2 regular-season record as a head coach for Carolina (2011-19) and Washington (2020-23), leading the Panthers to a Super Bowl loss to the Denver Broncos in the 2015 season.
Carolina beat Arizona 49-15 in the NFC Championship Game to reach that game.
The Cardinals fired Jonathan Gannon after he posted a 15-36 record and no playoff appearances in three seasons leading the team. Arizona's three wins this season were the fewest of his coaching tenure.
The Cardinals don't announce their interviews like many teams but have reportedly interviewed Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver, Patriots passing game coordinator Thomas Brown, Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur and defensive coordinator Chris Shula, Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph for its vacancy.
