Maybe he doesn’t like the heat but reports are that Dick LeBeau won’t be reuniting with Bruce Arians in Arizona any time soon. Since the Cardinals lost their defensive coordinator, Todd Bowles, when he became the new coach of the New York Jets, it has been speculated that LeBeau would join Arians’ staff as either their defensive coordinator or linebacker coach.

LeBeau resigned from the Pittsburgh Steelers as their defensive coordinator on January 10th and still remains unemployed. The Steelers went on to promote from within and had linebackers coach Keith Butler moved up to the defensive coordinator position, which was expected all along once LeBeau’s time would end with the Steelers.
