Bruce Arians’ coaching staff is starting to take shape, and Sunday the first-time head coach reportedly is adding an old colleague to the fold in Arizona.

According to CBS NFL insider Jason La Canfora, long-time assistant Tom Moore will work alongside Harold Goodwin as the Cardinals’ new assistant head coach/offensive coordinator.

Moore, whose career as an NFL assistant dates back to 1977, was the offensive coordinator in Indianapolis from 1998-2000 when Arians was the Colts quarterbacks coach.

The 74-year-old has been a part of three Super Bowl-winning staffs with Pittsburgh (1978 and 1979) and Indianapolis (2006). He most recently served as an offensive consultant for the Tennessee Titans and New York Jets.

In addition to Moore, La Canfora also reports that the Cardinals will add Tom Pratt as a pass-rush specialist.

Pratt has coached with the likes of Bill Cowher, Tony Dungy and Marty Schottenheimer during his time in the NFL. He will be coming to Arizona from IMG Academies, where he has worked with prospects leading up to the NFL draft.
