He’s a hot coaching commodity, no doubt.
But the Arizona Cardinals have done their part to keep defensive coordinator Todd Bowles with the organization.
According to ProFootballTalk.com, the Cardinals have extended Bowles’ contract through 2017.
The deal includes a significant pay raise. Bowles is now believed to be on the five highest-paid assistant coaches in the league.
Adam Schefter of ESPN wrote about the new deal on Facebook.
Bowles is in his second season as Arizona’s defensive coordinator. His unit currently ranks third in the NFL against the run, fourth in points allowed per game and is 11th overall.
The Cardinals, who own the league’s best record at 8-1, host the Detroit Lions (7-2) in a key NFC matchup Sunday at University of Phoenix Stadium.
