Report: Cardinals adding Mike Bercovici to coaching staff

The offensive graduate assistant will reportedly join Kliff Kingsbury’s offensive staff. He spent about a month on the Cardinals’ practice squad in 2017.

The Arizona Cardinals announced a few additions to their coaching staff recently. There will be another reported addition.

According to Devils Digest, insiders to the Arizona State Sun Devils program, the Cardinals are adding Mike Bercovici to their coaching staff. Bercovici was an offensive graduate assistant at ASU as part of Herm Edwards’ coaching staff.

Bercovici played collegiately at Arizona State and spent about a month on the Cardinals’ practice squad in 2017.

There did not appear to be any vacancies on the Cardinals’ offensive staff. The Cardinals have not announced the change.

It is possible he has received the Bill Bidwill Coaching Fellowship, as that opened up with Don Shumpert getting promoted from the fellowship to a spot on the staff as an offensive assistant.

Bercovici likely would work with the quarterbacks. Tom Clements is currently the team’s passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Bercovici worked with Sun Devils quarterback Jayden Daniels, who was a standout freshman in 2019. Daniels has a similar skill set to Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray.
