The 2023 season is the Arizona Cardinals' 104th season in the National Football League (NFL) and the first under new tandem head coach/general manager tandem of Jonathan Gannon and Monti Ossenfort. They attempt to improve upon their 4–13 record from the previous year and make the playoffs after a 1 year absence. The team also introduced new uniforms for the first time since the 2005 season. For the first time since 2019, DeAndre Hopkins will not be on the roster as he was released in the offseason.

Offseason

Head coach

The Cardinals fired fourth year head coach Kliff Kingsbury, who led the Cardinals to playoffs in 2021. On February 14, the Cardinals hired former Philadelphia Eagles' defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon as the team's new head coach.

General manager

Steve Keim stepped down as general manager who spent tenth seasons, who most notably led the organization to draft such as D. J. Humphries, Haason Reddick, Budda Baker and Kyler Murray. On January 16, 2023 the Cardinals hired former Tennessee Titans director of player personnel Monti Ossenfort as their new general manager.

Uniforms

On April 20, the Cardinals unveiled new uniforms. A large "Arizona" word mark is spread across the top of the numbers on the home uniform and does not appear on the away or alternate uniforms. The home uniform's numbers are accented with a silver outline and forgoes a sleeve pattern included on the alternate and away jerseys. The white uniform featured red numbers with black trim, and red and silver stripes along the pants and sleeves. Black remains the primary color of the alternate uniform. Its numbers are red with a silver outline. The helmet was modified to feature silver facemasks and silver reflective flakes on the shell, similar to the their alternate helmet's red flakes.[1] The helmet also includes larger team logos included on either side.
