Gophers defensive line coach Winston DeLattiboudere III, who has quickly moved up the coaching ranks since his playing career with Minnesota ended after the 2019 season, is leaving to become the defensive line coach of the Arizona Cardinals,

Sam Siefkes also is a former Wofford and Wisconsin-Platteville defensive coordinator, and he worked as a quality control coach for the Minnesota Vikings.

Over the weekend the Arizona Cardinals dove into the college ranks to hire Ohio St.’s Justin Frye as their new OL coach and then Minnesota’s Winston DeLattiboudere III as their new DL coach. Cardinals’ connection: Winston DeLattiboudere and Nick Rallis were teammates on the Gophers back in 2016.
