Cardinals net 5th-round pick in Josh Jones trade

The Cardinals send Jones and a 2024 seventh-round pick to the Texans for a fifth-round pick.

The Arizona Cardinals made a pair of trades on Thursday, sending safety Isaiah Simmons to the New York Giants and also tackle Josh Jones to the Houston Texans.

The deal with the Texans nets the Cardinals a fifth-round pick.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Cardinals are sending Jones and a seventh-round pick in exchange for Houston’s fifth-round pick in 2024.

This is the second trade of the offseason between the Cardinals and Texans. They also made a draft-day trade in which the Cardinals acquired the Texans’ first-round pick and third-round pick.

Arizona will not have Houston’s selections in the first, third and fifth rounds after this deal.
