Dick LeBeau spent the last 11 seasons as Pittsburgh Steelers defensive coordinator, five (2007-2011) with Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians on the Steelers’ offensive staff.
“There’s not a greater coach in the world,” Arians said of LeBeau in an interview with Frank Bodani of YDR.com.
LeBeau would replace Mike Caldwell who was released on Jan. 16 to join former Cardinals defensive coordinator Todd Bowles in New York.
