The Bill Bidwill Coaching Fellowship, started by the Cardinals in 2015 to help increase diversity in the coaching ranks and provide more opportunity for experience on the NFL level, has its newest member.

Jordan Hogan, who has spent the last three seasons as the wide receivers coach at Cornell University, was named to succeed Don Shumpert in the program. Shumpert was promoted to offensive assistant with the Cardinals earlier in the offseason. Hogan will help coach the Cardinals' quarterbacks.
