Vance Joseph Reportedly Will Be Hired as Cardinals Defensive Coordinator

Vance Joseph will reportedly become the Arizona Cardinals' next defensive coordinator.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reported the news, while colleague Josina Anderson noted "I'm told the Cardinals are planning to hire Vance Joseph as defensive coordinator, per sources. They are still in discussions on a deal."

The 46-year-old's arrival is likely to be met with some consternation among Arizona's fans. The Denver Broncos fired Joseph in December after going 6-10 in 2018. They hadn't posted a losing record in back-to-back years since 1972.

One could argue two seasons isn't a big enough sample by which to definitively judge Joseph's future prospects as an NFL head coach.
