Cardinals request interview with Texans DB coach Dino Vasso for defensive coordinator

The Arizona Cardinals have requested an interview with Houston Texans defensive backs coach Dino Vasso for their defensive coordinator position. Alongside Vasso, the Cardinals are also interested in interviewing New York Giants outside linebackers coach Charlie Bullen and Los Angeles Rams assistant head coach/defensive pass game coordinator Aubrey Pleasant. Previously, Vasso was considered for the Tennessee Titans' coordinator role after Robert Saleh's hiring but was not selected. Vasso has served as the Texans' defensive backs coach since 2024 and was the team's cornerbacks coach for three seasons prior. His coaching experience also includes stints with the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.
