Jason Cole of Yahoo Sports reports that “word around the league” is that Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt is safe from receiving the pink slip this offseason.
Cole adds that Chicago’s Lovie Smith and Detroit’s Jim Schwartz are also likely to be retained for another season.
Previous reports mentioned that the Cardinals had at one point thought about replacing Whisenhunt with defensive coordinator Ray Horton, but will reportedly consider replacing GM Rod Graves instead.
Whisenhunt will have to figure out a solution to their quarterback issues. He hasn’t show any ability to develop a quarterback to fit his system and had he not had Kurt Warner for a few years, there’s a reasonable chance that he would have already been fired.
