The Arizona Cardinals appear to be closing in on their replacement for head coach Bruce Arians. Beat writer Kent Somers is reporting the team is closing in on a deal with Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks to become the head coach.
Over the weekend, there was a report the Cardinals were going to give New England Patriots linebackers coach Brian Flores a second interview, and Jim Caldwell might get a look as offensive coordinator. Instead, they appear set to go with Wilkes, who just completed his first year as defensive coordinator.
