3 Coaches That Could Be Fired After Week 18

1. Jonathan Gannon, Arizona Cardinals

This one is inevitable. Jonathan Gannon inherited a mess when he joined the Arizona Cardinals in 2023, and nobody should blame him for not being able to win games with that roster. However, it’s been three years now, and the team is no closer to making the playoffs now than they were when he first took over.

Arizona is 3-13 and will almost certainly move on from quarterback Kyler Murray in the offseason. This team is staring down another long, painful rebuild, and Gannon hasn’t done anything to show he can build a winning organization. He’s 15-35 during his Cardinals tenure, and that’s not good enough to save his job.
