Fans around the world have every right and reason to label the Arizona Cardinals’ 2023 season as a tank year.
Out of their 14 unrestricted free agent signings, 10 of them were journeymen or special teams players signed to one-year veteran minimum contracts.
Three of their top defensive playmakers of 2022 are off the team with J.J. Watt retiring, Zach Allen signing a lucrative three-year deal with the Denver Broncos, and Byron Murphy joining the Minnesota Vikings.
Now, All-Pro wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins wants out of Arizona after listing the names of quarterbacks and teams he would like to play for on the I Am Athlete podcast as well as Bryant McFadden’s All Things Sports podcast on CBS Sports last month.
