Gus Bradley named as possible DC candidate for Arizona Cardinals
With Raheem Morris going to the 49ers, Gus Bradley could land in Arizona.
The Arizona Cardinals made official the report of making Mike LaFleur their new head coach. What we do not know yet is who will join him on his staff. Who will be his defensive coordinator?
The Cardinals could have the opportunity to land a well-known, well-respected and successful defensive coordinator.
According to SI.com's Albert Breer, the Cardinals could be the favorite to land Gus Bradley, who also could go to the Tennessee Titans. But with head coach Robert Saleh planning on calling defensive plays, Bradley might lean more toward Arizona.
Bradley spent the last three seasons as the defensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts. He has been a DC or head coach in the NFL since 2009. He has run the defenses of the Colts, Seattle Seahawks, LA Chargers and Las Vegas Raiders. He was the head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars from 2013-2016.
His experience would also be welcome, as LaFleur is a first-time head coach.
Of course, LaFleur and Bradley have not crossed paths yet on any team, so we will see what the plan is.
