Burke is the play-caller for the No. 1 defense in the NFL, and he previously coached the Cardinals&#8217; defensive line in 2022. The Cardinals are looking to replace Jonathan Gannon, who was fired last week after the team went 3-14 in 2025. Burke has been the Texans&#8217; DC for three seasons under head coach DeMeco Ryans. In addition to Houston being first in points allowed this year, they ranked second in yards allowed. Burke is well-traveled around the NFL as a coach, with stops in Tennessee (2004-08), Detroit (2009-13), Cincinnati (2014-15), Miami (2016-18), Philadelphia (2019-20), New York (2021), and Arizona (2022).&#8211;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rotoballer.com\/author\/keithghernandezgmail-com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Keith Hernandez<\/a><br \/>Source: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DMRussini\/status\/2011244885131854140\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Athletic &#8211; Dianna Russini<\/a>                <\/p>\n<p>        <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cardinals Request to Interview Matt Burke for Head-Coaching Job Share: Link copied to clipboard!
