The Arizona Cardinals<\/a> have confirmed the firing of head coach Jonathan Gannon following a 3-14 finish to the 2025 regular season.<\/p>\n

Jonathan is the fourth coach to be fired since the end of Week 18, with the Atlanta Falcons parting ways with Raheem Morris on Sunday<\/a> to get the ball rolling. Pete Carroll<\/a> and Kevin Stefanski have since been fired by the Las Vegas Raiders and Cleveland Browns, respectively.<\/p>\n

The Cardinals lost their last nine games to compile the aforementioned record, their last coming against the Los Angeles Rams<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Gannon went 15-36 during his time in charge of the team.<\/p>\n

Team owner Michael Bidwill and general manager Monti Ossenfort are expected to speak to the media today.<\/p>\n

\u201cExpectations were high for the Cardinals in 2025, but they were not met, and ultimately that cost Jonathan Gannon his job as head coach,\u201d<\/em><\/strong> the team reported via its official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe team announced on Monday morning Gannon was out after a 3-14 season.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Gannon joined the Cardinals two days after losing the Super Bowl<\/a> with the Philadelphia Eagles<\/a> in 2023. A former defensive coordinator for the Eagles, his hiring was met with controversy.<\/p>\n

The NFC East side was not happy after learning that he had interviewed with Arizona before the Super Bowl. That amounted to tampering.<\/p>\n

The two teams swapped third-round picks for the 2023 NFL<\/a> Draft as punishment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
