Not clickbait: QB Aaron Rodgers to the Cardinals?
The Arizona Cardinals drafted a young quarterback in this year’s NFL draft with the selection of Carson Beck from the University of Miami.

On the Cardinals roster, who is this Casey Kreiter listed?
The NFL draft just concluded. A string of undrafted rookie signings followed. A month earlier, it was the free agency period. In March, reserve/futures contracts were executed.

NFL Supplemental draft offers a quarterback the Cardinals may consider
The Arizona Cardinals appear to be pretty good with their quarterback situation. Journeyman Jacoby Brissett finally found a permanent home and should become the starter this upcoming season.

Need to Know! Meet new Cardinals OT Jayden Williams
When the Arizona Cardinals concluded the 2025 season, it was noticeable to everyone in the league that the offensive line needed work. This group ranked #26 in efficiency, and it showed.

Cardinals rookies: 2 listed as ESPN Rookie of the Year hopefuls
Arizona Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort focused on the offensive side of the ball in this year’s NFL draft, and rightfully so, with the hiring of Mike LaFleur, an offensive guy who is now the head coach.

Genealogy of American Football – When were “End Zones” invented?
The game is called American Football. Why? Because there are so many games known as “football.” 11 players per side. Offensive and defensive units. Tackling, punting, touchdowns, field goals, hitting, blocking, running, catching and a bit of kicking the ball with the foot. American football. Folks in North America simply call it “football.” Folks in […]

Suddenly, the Cardinals have a running back problem
The Arizona Cardinals, just a few short months ago, had a running back issue: they didn’t have hardly any. Starter James Conner was out all season when he suffered a foot injury in Week 3. His sidekick was Trey Benson, who was selected in the third round of the 2024 NFL draft. In the following […]
Calais Campbell returning to the NFL for another season… with the Baltimore Ravens
The Arizona Cardinals best and most productive defensive lineman was 39-year old Calais Campbell in 2025.

Calais Campbell is coming back for another season, this […]

Need to Know! Meet new Cardinals LB Karson Sharar
When the Arizona Cardinals completed the 2025 season, there was a glaring problem with the defense: poor tackling.

Need to Know! Meet new Cardinals WR Reggie Virgil
When the Arizona Cardinals concluded last season, the receiver group looked pretty good as it was going forward. Michael Wilson had emerged as WR1, and there were injury issues with Marv Harrison. Along with TE Trey McBride, the pass catchers looked pretty good. Greg Dortch was a free agent and signed with the Detroit Lions, […]
Arizona Cardinals 2026 NFL Draft Grades were not kind to the team
For the Arizona Cardinals the proof will be in the product. That is what happens when you have not really earned much in terms of runway when it comes to your drafts being good. Monti Ossenfort in his career has had three draft classes (the 2026 being his fourth) and has nary a Pro Bowl […]

Way-too-early Cardinals 53-man projection: Post-draft
The Arizona Cardinals had seven draft picks in this year’s 2026 NFL draft. Several new pieces should help this roster, with an emphasis on the offense.

Need to Know! Meet new Cardinals QB Carson Beck
When the Arizona Cardinals took Miami QB Carson Beck with the first spot in the third round, was this something that was supposed to happen?
