GLENDALE — The Arizona Cardinals continue to look for their next head coach and are in a position to meet with a candidate face-to-face.
This places Weaver among a narrowing group of serious candidates for a job that represents a critical turning point for the franchise. Arizona is coming off another losing season (3-14), and the next head coach hire will be central to shaping the short- and long-term direction of the team.
Weaver has emerged as one of the most sought-after candidates for his coaching style. In two seasons with Miami, he implemented a flexible and aggressive system built on adaptability and player development. That approach could benefit the Cardinals as they navigate a roster transition while working to establish a clear identity.
In the midst of a rebuild, Weaver’s background as a former NFL player and his reputation as a strong communicator could appeal to a locker room in need of change and stability.
The decision to bring Weaver in for an in-person meeting suggests the organization is seeking a leader capable of driving meaningful change. In a conference that continues to grow more competitive, Weaver could provide stability and cultural direction in Arizona
Weaver’s in-person meeting represents another step in a process that will determine how the organization positions itself over the next several seasons.
