The Cardinals have a new head coach. The team has come to an agreement with Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Ken Whisenhunt on a contract, two NFL sources said Sunday morning.
Terms of the deal were not immediately available.
The 44-year-old Whisenhunt has a reputation as a creative offensive mind and should fit well with a Cards offense that has star power at quarterback (Matt Leinart), running back (Edgerrin James) and wide receiver (Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin).
Whisenhunt arrived Friday for a second interview, a talk that lasted, as planned, into Saturday.
The Cardinals also interviewed Texans assistant head coach Mike Sherman a second time.
Whisenhunt had been offensive coordinator for the Steelers since the 2004 season, following three seasons as tight ends coach.
