The Cardinals are reportedly hiring Dallas Cowboys assistant defensive backs and quality control coach Cristian Garcia as Arizona’s new inside linebackers coach, according to ESPN’s Todd Archer.
Archer adds Dallas had hoped to keep the assistant on staff, but the opportunity was better in Arizona.
The assistant takes over for former ILBs coach Sam Siefkes, who heads to Virginia Tech as its next defensive coordinator.
