Report: Cardinals want Mike McCoy in for second interview

Jan 14, 2013, 5:08 PM | Updated: 5:21 pm

With the Denver Broncos eliminated from the playoffs, the battle to hire offensive coordinator Mike McCoy is likely to pick up some steam.

McCoy, who is arguably the hottest name on the market with regards to becoming some team’s next head coach, has already interviewed with the Cardinals, Bears and Eagles, and is scheduled to meet with the Charges Monday.

According to FOX NFL insider Jay Glazer, the Cards want to chat with him again Tuesday.

Last week ESPN NFL insider John Clayton said McCoy was the “leader in the clubhouse” for the Arizona job, and the fact that they want him for a second interview would lend credibility to that claim.

However, with other teams at least interested in the coach — most of which have better quarterbacks than the Cardinals have to offer — their chances of landing him remain very much up in the air.
