It was reported last month that the Arizona Cardinals were hiring Rob Kisiel to add to their front office.
The team announced on LinkedIn Kisiel was named assistant director of player personnel
Kisiel was a senior pro scout for the Atlanta Falcons for the last two seasons and, prior to that, was a scout for the Houston Texans from 2000-2007, a college scout from 2012-2017 and then director of pro personnel from 2017-2021.
Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort was also a scout for the Texans in 2004-2005, so the two would have known and worked with each other.
Kisiel is the assistant now to director of player personnel Dru Grigson.
