The Cardinals are in no apparent rush to make a decision on Haason Reddick, the linebacker from Temple. They have to make the call by Monday morning. Defensive coordinator Vance Joseph might have provided an inkling when discussing 2020 first-rounder, Isaiah Simmons. “He (Simmons) is a guy who can stand up and rush on the edge as an outside backer, he can obviously cover tight ends and he can walk over the slot as a nickel-type player. When they’re counting the box and we’ve got Haason Reddick out there, we’ve got Isaiah out there, we’ve got (De’Vondre) Campbell, we’ve got Jordan (Hicks), we’ve got Chandler (Jones) and we’ve got Jordan Phillips, they have to declare who’s the fourth down (man) going to be.
