The Billsā hire is framed as a move to maximize Allenās window, with Brady already familiar with the franchiseās offensive system. Brady has interviewed with several other teams, including the Atlanta Falcons, Miami Dolphins, Baltimore Ravens, and Las Vegas Raiders, though the Raiders have yet to fill their vacancy.
Meanwhile, the Arizona Cardinalsā head-coaching search has a clear early favorite emerging. Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur is viewed as the frontrunner, and Arizona is scheduled to conduct a second interview with him on Tuesday. If he lands the role, the Cardinals would likely move quickly to finalize a deal.
The Cardinals also conducted second interviews with Jaguars defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile and former Falcons head coach Raheem Morris. Morris could pivot into a defensive coordinator and assistant head coach role if Arizona hires an offensive-minded coach such as LaFleur, mirroring the teamās Kliff Kingsbury-era staffing structure.
Regardless of the system, the new coach will influence the quarterback position in a major way. Arizona is expected to trade Kyler Murray this offseason, setting up a rapid rebuild at QB. Short-term options like Jimmy Garoppolo have been discussed as fit-for-purpose solutions, while decisions about long-term plans will hinge on the next coachās evaluation of the roster.
Looking ahead to the draft, the Cardinals face tough choices at quarterback. Dante Moore elected to stay in school, and Ty Simpson declared for the NFL draft, shaping how Arizona might approach its top selection (No. 3 overall) if the next coach believes either prospect aligns with the teamās vision.
