Cardinals hiring Klayton Adams as OL coach

Jonathan Gannon knows Adams from when they were both on the Indianapolis Colts.

The Arizona Cardinals are continuing to build their new coaching staff under new head coach Jonathan Gannon. Their three main coordinators are set and now position coaches are getting signed.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, they are making Klayton Adams their new offensive line coach.

Adams was the tight ends coach for the Indianapolis Colts the last two seasons and was the Colts’ assistant offensive line coach in 2019-2020. Gannon was on the Colts’ staff in 2019.

Adams recently took a job at Stanford as the run game coordinator and offensive line coach.

Before 2019, he coached in college since 2005, coaching running backs, tight ends and offensive linemen at different points.

Gannon promised “major, major experience” with guys on his coaching staff. While Adams has only coached in the NFL since 2019, his years of coaching certainly qualify him as an experienced coach.
