Kliff Kingsbury's name already heating up as first head coach vacancy opens
"Kingsbury was a hot name on last year's head coaching cycle after galvanizing his career with the Commanders. The New Orleans Saints' job was reportedly his if he wanted it, but the play-caller opted to stay in Washington, citing his love for the job, working with Jayden Daniels, and learning so much from Dan Quinn as driving forces behind his decision."
"[Kliff] Kingsbury's unique, up-tempo offense ranked top seven in both yards per game (369.6) and points per game (28.5) in 2024. Kingsbury has been a head coach before, as he led the Arizona Cardinals from 2019-22. He improved Arizona's win total every year, going from 5-10-1 to 8-8 to eventually 11-6, but was let go after a disastrous 4-13 campaign in 2022. Overall, the 46-year-old coach has gone 28-37-1 as a lead man. Consistency is a question when it comes to Kingsbury, but he will be aboard the coaching carousel this offseason."
Brian Callahan was dismissed as Tennessee Titans head coach six games into the 2025 season, creating a vacancy that has prompted interest in Kliff Kingsbury. Kingsbury is a prominent candidate due to his success with an up-tempo offense that ranked top seven in yards and points per game in 2024 and his track record developing young quarterbacks. Kingsbury previously led the Arizona Cardinals from 2019-22, improving their win total before finishing 4-13 in his final season and compiling a 28-37-1 head coaching record. Kingsbury has stated he will be selective about future opportunities, and consistency remains a concern.
