We’ll never know what kind of NFL quarterback Matt Leinart would have turned into, but we do know that Ken Whisenhunt preferred Kurt Warner over the former Heisman Trophy winner.
Leinart never forgot.
About a year ago, the former Cardinals quarterback predicted the Tennessee Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt would be looking for a new job “in a year or two.”
Whisenhunt, who coached Leinart for three years in Arizona, was fired by the Titans, and Leinart took a moment to bask in the glow of his prediction come true.

Leinart, who now works as a college football analyst, started 11 games as a rookie with the Arizona Cardinals in 2006 before Whisenhunt took over the following season.
