The first name to come up connected with the Cardinals is a familiar face.<\/p>\n

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter<\/a>, Denver Broncos<\/a> defensive coordinator Vance Joseph will interview with the Cardinals for the job, as well as interview with the Las Vegas Raiders<\/a>, New York Giants<\/a> and Tennessee Titans<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Joseph, who has been the DC for the Broncos for the last three season, was Arizona’s defensive coordinator from 2019-2022 under head coach Kliff Kingsbury. This past season, Joseph’s defense with the Broncos was No. 2 in the league in yards allowed and No. 3 in points allowed. In 2024, it was seventh in yards and third in points.<\/p>\n

He also has head coaching experience, going 11-21 in two seasons in 2017-2018 for the Broncos.<\/p>\n

He interviewed for the Cardinals’ job in 2023 before Gannon was hired and he landed with Sean Payton’s staff in Denver.<\/p>\n

He was well respected in the building while with the Cardinals and by players.<\/p>\n

Joseph, as of publishing, is one of five candidates known to be connected to the Cardinals’ vacancy.<\/p>\n

He is able to interview this week even though the Broncos are in the playoffs because they are the No. 1 seed in the AFC and have a first-round bye.<\/p>\n
