Cardinals are hiring former Dolphins DC Matt Burke

Former Miami Dolphins coaches are continuing to find other opportunities in the league.

According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Arizona Cardinals are hiring former Dolphins defensive coordinator Matt Burke to be the team’s defensive line coach as he joins Vance Joseph for the third time in his career.

Burke spent three years with Miami from 2016 to 2018 as linebackers coach and then defensive coordinator under Adam Gase’s regime. During his two seasons as the Dolphins defensive coordinator, Miami’s defense gave up 24.6 (29th) and 27.1 (27th) points per game.

After Gase was fired, Burke wasn’t retained by Brian Flores and joined the Philadelphia Eagles for two seasons as a defensive assistant in 2019 and the run game coordinator/defensive line coach in 2020.

The 45-year-old spent this past season with the New York Jets as their game management coach.
