Brian Flores now alone as betting favorite to be Cardinals’ next HC

Brian Flores’ odds to be the Arizona Cardinals’ next head coach have shortened from +350 earlier in the week to +150.

The Arizona Cardinals are continuing to interview candidates for their vacancy at head coach, as they fired Kliff Kingsbury after the season. They have interviewed a few candidates and have a few lined up.

However, there has been significant movement in the betting odds as to who will be the next head coach.

Former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores is now alone as the betting favorite, according to odds from DraftKings.

As of Friday afternoon, he had the shortest odds at +150.

When things started after the season, former New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton was the favorite at +300. After the team announced Monti Ossenfort as the new general manager, Payton’s odds fell to +350 and Flores moved to the co-favorite at +350.

As the interview process has commenced, now Flores is the clear favorite.

These are the current (as of Friday afternoon) odds for the candidates the Cardinals have either interviewed or requested to interview.

  • Brian Flores +150
  • Sean Payton +350
  • Vance Joseph +500
  • DeMeco Ryans +700
  • Frank Reich +1200
  • Aaron Glenn +3000
  • Ejiro Evero +5000
