The Arizona Cardinals are seeking a second interview with New England Patriots linebackers coach Brian Flores for their open head coaching position, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Sources told Schefter that Flores would likely bring on former Detroit Lions head coach Jim Caldwell as his offensive coordinator if he gets the job.
Flores has been with the Patriots since 2004, beginning as a scouting assistant. He took over as the linebackers coach last season. The 36-year-old has never worked for another NFL team.
Caldwell was the head coach of the Lions from 2014-17 but was fired at the end of the regular season.
Former Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians announced his retirement at the conclusion of the regular season.
