Arizona Cardinals Offseason Outlook
Arizona had a strong regular season and has followed it up with an active offseason. A few of the marquee players they signed are Quarterback Jacoby Brissett and Linebacker Josh Sweat. Arizona also re-signed Wide Receiver Zay Jones and Linebacker Baron Browning.
Tomlinson comes to a Cardinals defense that struggled against the run. They were 20th in the league in that department last season. Arizona has a few marquee names on its defense including Safety Budda Baker and Cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting.
Final Thoughts
Tomlinson will look to provide veteran experience to an Arizona Cardinals team that has been active this offseason. The team has bolstered its roster on both sides of the ball as they seek a return to the NFL Playoffs.
