The backlash follows a recent slump that includes missed kicks against Seattle and Denver, prompting coach Andy Reid to issue a warning.

Which NFL team tried to make a swing for Cardinals TE Trey McBride?

The Denver Broncos have reportedly inquired league‑wide about Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride, according to Adam Schefter. McBride, a Colorado native, is posting a career‑best season with 66 catches for 544 yards and five touchdowns in eight games, after a record‑setting 2025 campaign (126 receptions, 1,239 yards, 11 TDs). Despite Denver’s “ambitious” interest, the Cardinals have made it clear they won’t trade him—McBride is under a four‑year extension through 2029 and is a cornerstone of Arizona’s offense. The trade talk likely ends there.
