According to CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz, Garcia is moving from linebackers to coach safeties in 2026.
It won't be new for Garcia, who was an assistant defensive backs coach for the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Commanders.
The Cardinals will have a new inside linebackers coach, according to Zenitz, hiring Rod Wilson to work with the inside linebackers. He was the outside linebackers coach for the Kansas City Chiefs.
