Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur has reportedly emerged as the front-runner to take over as the Arizona Cardinals' new head coach, according to ABC15's Craig Fouhy.
The Cardinals have been in search of a new head coach since Bruce Arians announced his retirement on New Year's Day.
Shurmur's last stint as a head coach spanned the 2011 and 2012 seasons when he led the Cleveland Browns to a record of 9-23. He also coached one game for the Philadelphia Eagles on an interim basis at the end of the 2015 season following Chip Kelly's ouster.
