The Arizona Cardinals will need a new strength and conditioning coordinator.

Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com is reporting the team and John Lott have parted ways.

“Coach (Bruce) Arians let John know this morning that he’s making a change and going in a different direction in that role. Everyone at the team is certainly grateful to John for his contributions and wish him nothing but the best moving forward. The search for a replacement is underway.”

Lott had been with the Cardinals since 2007, when Ken Whisenhunt was hired, and had two years remaining on his contract. Some believe he will now end up in Tennessee with his for boss.

Lott is well known for his work during the NFL Scouting Combine as he would press draft hopefuls to push their boundaries when it came to the bench press. A fiery coach, his phrase, “Get your mind right” could be seen on shirts around the Cardinals practice facility.

According to Urban, assistant strength and conditioning coach Pete Alosi will remain in place.
