The former Arizona Cardinals coach helped the Commanders cruise to a 42-14 victory and was the center of attention afterward.

There will be a familiar face on the sidelines for the Arizona Cardinals' next opponent, the Washington Commanders. Their offensive coordinator is Kliff Kingsbury, who was the Cardinals' head coach from 2019-2022.
