Kingsbury and the Cardinals have the best record in the NFL currently with 9-2. It is not a surprise that many teams are interested in hiring him as their new head coach. Currently, Kliff has not been entertaining any rumors. When asked about Oklahoma, he said, “I don’t get into those things,” Kingsbury adds, My sole focus the last couple weeks has been the Chicago Bears. After watching them on Thanksgiving, it needs to be because they’re a really good football team and had a big win, so that’s where my focus has been.”
Kliff does not want to talk about the rumors right now. “We’re in-season. We’re 9-2. Just not a topic I want to touch on right now.”
