The NFL has wrapped up its new head coaching cycle. All eight teams who needed to hire a head coach has done so. The last to do so were the Washington Commanders, who are hiring Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn.
The eight new head coaches in the NFL in 2024 are as follows:
- Dan Quinn, Washington Commanders
- Mike Macdonald, Seattle Seahawks
- Raheem Morris, Atlanta Falcons
- Dave Canales, Carolina Panthers
- Jim Harbaugh, Los Angeles Chargers
- Brian Callahan, Tennessee Titans
- Antonio Pierce, Las Vegas Raiders
- Jerod Mayo, New England Patriots
Of those new head coaches, the Arizona Cardinals will face five of them in 2024 in six games.

The Cardinals will face Quinn and the Commanders at State Farm Stadium.
