Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians left Tuesday evening's team practice at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego with stomach pain, according to Mark Dalton, Cardinals vice president of public relations.

Arians is entering his fourth season as Cardinals head coach. He has a career 34-14 record in Arizona and led the Cards to last season's NFC Championship Game.

The 63-year-old Arians is a prostate cancer survivor.
