The Cardinals are moving on from Jonathan Gannon.
The franchise fired its third-year head coach Monday after another losing season, the worst of his tenure at 3-14.
Gannon finishes his time with the franchise at 15-36.

General Manager Monti Ossenfort is now tasked with securing Gannon’s successor.
Gannon, 42, arrived in Arizona in 2023 following a two-season run as the Eagles’ defensive coordinator.
He reached the Super Bowl in his final season with Philadelphia, an eventual 38-35 loss to the Chiefs.
The Cardinals, basement dwellers of the NFC West in two of Gannon’s three seasons at the helm, have a monumental decision at quarterback looming this offseason.
Kyler Murray, the No. 1 overall pick in 2019, is due $36.8 million in guaranteed salary for the upcoming season, according to Over the Cap.
The Oklahoma product, sidelined since Week 5 with a foot injury, was officially shut down for the season in December.
Questions about what’s next for QB Kyler Murray loom this offseason. Getty ImagesIn five starts, Murray tossed six touchdowns against three interceptions and rushed for a score.
The Cardinals then turned to journeyman Jacoby Brissett.
A third-round pick with the Patriots in 2016, Brissett signed a two-year, $12.5 million contract with the Cardinals in March.
The Cardinals hold the third overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft behind the Raiders and Jets, respectively.
