Tosh Lupoi won’t be Cardinals’ DL coach as he takes job with Falcons

He will be the Falcons’ DL coach and run game coordinator.

The Arizona Cardinals have not announced anything regarding their coaching staff but it appears that five coaches who were on their staff in 2019 are no longer with the team. Among them was defensive line coach Chris Achuff, who was reportedly fired after the season.

The Cardinals were scheduled to interview former Cleveland Browns defensive line coach Tosh Lupoi for the same position. However, he will not be part of head coach Kliff Kingsbury’s staff, as he has been hired by the Atlanta Falcons, the team announced. He will be their defensive line coach and run game coordinator.

Lupoi previously was co-defensive coordinator for the Alabama Crimson Tide under head coach Nick Saban.

No other potential candidates for the vacancy or any other of the presumed vacancies have been reported thus far.
