Bears seek interview with Cardinals OC Drew Petzing for vacant head coaching job

The season is over for the Arizona Cardinals and now we must wait to see if there will be changes with the coaching staff. One coach on the staff has garnered interest for a head coaching job.

According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, the Chicago Bears have requested an interview with Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing.

Petzing has been the Cardinals’ OC for two years, his first two years at the position. Previously, he coached quarterbacks and tight ends for the Cleveland Browns.

Under Petzing this season, they were 11th in total offense and 15th in scoring. They were seventh in rushing and 18th in passing.

The Bears see his work with Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray as perhaps a model for Caleb Williams, who finished his rookie season with the Bears.

The request is a formality, as he is under contract currently, but because it is for a head coaching job, the Cardinals cannot stop him from interviewing.
