Kenneth Moore Whisenhunt (born February 28, 1962) is an American football coach who is the offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Chargers of the National Football League (NFL). Whisenhunt was head coach of the Arizona Cardinals from 2007 to 2012 and Tennessee Titans from 2014 to 2015. He led the Cardinals to their first Super Bowl appearance in franchise history during the 2008 season, as well as their first home playoff games in 60 years. Previously, he was known for his offensive background, including the success he had with the Pittsburgh Steelers in his three years as their offensive coordinator under Bill Cowher and winning Super Bowl XL during the 2005 season.
After attending the Academy of Richmond County in Augusta, Georgia for high school, Whisenhunt played college football at Georgia Tech (1980–84) where he graduated with a degree in civil engineering. During his senior season, he was an honorable mention All-American. He finished first team all-ACC during his final two college seasons.
His career as a player included four years (1985–88) as a tight end with the Atlanta Falcons, who drafted him in the twelfth round, and then short stints with the Washington Redskins and New York Jets. He retired from the league in 1993 after nine seasons in which he was mostly known as a blocking back. From 1986-1988 with Atlanta, he accumulated 53 catches for 503 yards with 5 TD.
