Former Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury looks like he won’t be returning to coaching anytime soon.
Per NFL reporter/analyst Peter Schrager, Kingsbury is reportedly telling teams that he won’t be fielding any interviews for vacant offensive coordinator positions at the moment for a pretty understandable reasons.
Kingsbury has reportedly bought a one-way ticket to Thailand and will be vacationing for the time being.
The Cardinals owe Kingsbury a ton of money after he signed an extension on his contract through 2027, so it looks like he’s going to use some of that money on a scenic getaway. Can you blame him?
As I just reported on FOX, multiple teams have contacted Kliff Kingsbury for their vacant OC job.

Kingsbury will likely coach again in the NFL if he wants to, and he could probably land a head coaching gig at the collegiate level, too. He’s still one of the more respected coaching minds of his generation, even if his time with Arizona ended on a sour note.
However, for now, it looks like Kingsbury has entered vacation mode and has no return flight booked to either the coaching ranks or the United States.
