An Arizona Cardinals community -- the best one there is
When an NFL franchise loses 26 games in the past two seasons, there are obvious problems and issues. No wonder the head coach was fired. Plenty of holes to fill and new bodies to bring in and compete. That is the advantage of the free agency period. Next month, the NFL draft will take care […]
Something expected happened. Just as Kyler Murray was finally released by the Arizona Cardinals, the Minnesota Vikings signed him to a one-year deal during the free agency period. He signed for the $1.3 million veteran minimum. Murray will compete for the starting job against J.J. McCarthy who has disappointed since he was selected 10th overall […]
Happy Thursday one and all. The Arizona Cardinals are doing their best to create a competitive team in 2026, and today they announced signings of six free agents. We knew about four of the players, running back Tyler Allgeier, quarterback Gardner Minshew II, long snapper Casey Kreiter, and offensive lineman Matt Pryor, but two more […]
As the Arizona Cardinals continue to fill out their 2026 NFL roster, they are doing so with some familiar names. Today, the team announced they are bringing back running back Zonovan “Bam” Knight and cornerback Starling Thomas V. From the team: Knight (5-11, 210) played in a career-high 12 games (eight starts) last season with the […]
The Arizona Cardinals have several positions that need quality bodies, and other rooms that, on the surface, appear to be good. Like tight end. Or cornerback. And maybe receiver? Or, maybe not. The Cardinals’ receivers have two really good ones in Michael Wilson and Marv Harrison. But, after that? Everyone knows a good offense needs […]
Happy opening day of free agency one and all. The Arizona Cardinals heading into the 2026 Free Agency period have the following that should become official today when allowed: Along with the moves that we know are official because they were re-signings for the team: All of that and we are looking at the Cardinals […]
After losing 26 games in the past two seasons, the Arizona Cardinals had a ton of holes to fill. Some of it would come in April’s NFL draft, while the remainder would become solid in this year’s free agency. And now, here it is: 2026 NFL free agency tampering period. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort has […]
The Arizona Cardinals will need to get the 2026 free agency class right. Help is needed in so many areas. GM Monti Ossenfort seems to have a good focus on both the offensive and defensive lines. Which is a huge plus. Let’s hope his signings come to fruition this year. RELATED: CARDINALS FREE AGENCY TRACKER […]

The Arizona Cardinals have made some moves… allegedly. Remember, while these are 99% done, they cannot be officially done in free agency until 1:00 p.m. Arizona time on Wednesday March 11, 2026. What we know so far for the Arizona Cardinals 2026 NFL Free Agency moves. Official Moves: Bringing back Collier made sense, they lack […]
Sometimes, football teams will hit home runs. No, it’s not a charity softball game developed by one of their star players against the Savannah Bananas. The Arizona Cardinals signed OG Isaac Seumalo, age 32, of the Pittsburgh Steelers, on the opening day of free agency. That, my friends, is a home run. On a list […]
The Arizona Cardinals are knee deep in the free agency period. Usually, the first day will bring in a splash or two, and also a lot of whispers, cheers, and doubts. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort earns a huge portion of his paycheck during these first three days. On Day 1, he inked RB Tyler Allgeier, […]
We have officially entered the 2026 NFL Legal Tampering Period, so just a reminder, that deals will be reported today, but they cannot be signed until Wednesday at 1:00 p.m. Arizona time when free agency officially starts. We will have a tracker up for each of the first couple of days of free agency to […]
The answer to the question of who the Arizona Cardinals will bring in to be their new quarterback is… Gardner Minshew II. At least to compete with Jacoby Brissett. From Ian Rapoport: Minshew is another journeyman quarterback in a long line of Arizona Cardinals journeyman quarterbacks. Minshew’s last stop was with the Kansas City Chiefs […]
Unless something changes, Malik Willis is not going to be the next Arizona Cardinals starting quarterback. Despite working to clear cap space, talking about being aggressive and needing to turn things around quickly, the top free agent quarterback on the market is now a Miami Dolphin. It is a smaller deal than expected, but still […]
It’s a well-known fact that the Arizona Cardinals’ offensive line needs help. Start with the guard position, then move to tackle. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort is about to dive into free agency. A player here and there can change the sad situation along the offensive line. If Ossenfort can ink a good guard and then […]

The NFL free agency period starts tomorrow with the tampering period open March 9-11, and the all contracts become official on March 12, which is the beginning of the NFL new year. Both the Saturday and Sunday before free agency begins are usually very busy with announced trades, plus restructuring existing contracts aimed at allowing […]
The running back room will apparently not be too different in 2026. The Arizona Cardinals and running back James Conner have agreed on a restructure of the backs contract in order for him to remain with the team. Conner only saw action in three games in 2025 before a devastating ankle injury cost him the […]
The 2026 NFL Free agency period kicks off tomorrow and Jess and I are back with the second of our previews. This one is all about the defense, and the Arizona Cardinals defense had holes in 2025, and now has more holes after the releases they have had leading into this week. Jess and I […]
Coming out of high school, college prospects are allowed five official visits with colleges. With the NFL, teams are allowed 30, commonly referred to as “30 visits.” This is where the club will bring in a kid, show him around the facility, have him meet coaches, scouts, front office personnel, the GM, and usually the […]
In 2015, the Arizona Cardinals under head coach Bruce Arians went 13-3-0 and captured the NFC West Division title. After an embarrassing 49-15 loss to the Carolina Panthers in the NFC Championship Game, it was determined that the defense needed some extra care. So, with the 29th pick in the 2016 NFL draft, Arizona selected […]
Happy Saturday morning one and all. The Arizona Cardinals and the rest of the NFL are getting ready for the 2026 free agency period to begin, and we need to get to know the players the Arizona Cardinals could be in pursuit of, starting with the offense. Jess and I start off with a focus […]
Another one of the big signings for Monti Ossenfort is one and done. The Arizona Cardinals are releasing Dalvin Tomlinson: Tomlinson was supposed to be an integral piece in an improving defense, and instead was basically a non-factor eating up cap space. Moving on after one season makes sense, because you need to show some […]
The Arizona Cardinals are bringing in a veteran defensive coach to help our Nick Rallis’ staff. Jeremy Fowler is reporting the Arizona Cardinals are bringing in longtime defensive coach Teryl Austin to be a defensive assistant. Austin was with the Steelers from 2019-25, serving as the team’s defensive coordinator from 2022-25. He previously served as […]
