Cardinals’ Isaiah Simmons named to 2020 PFWA All-Rookie Team

It wasn’t the rookie season that most fans expected for Cardinals linebacker Isaiah Simmons, but it still ranked among the league’s best rookies.
The 2020 No. 8 overall pick was named to the 2020 PFWA All-Rookie Team, as voted on by accredited media members covering the 32 NFL teams across the country.
Simmons was one of three linebackers named, along with Kenneth Murray of the Chargers and Patrick Queen of the Ravens.
He played on only 34% of defensive snaps but still was productive. He finished the season with 54 tackles (4 for loss), 2 sacks, 3 quarterback hits, an interception, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery

3 possible offensive coordinator candidates for the Cardinals

The Cardinals are in need of offensive coaching help. After being ranked the No. 1 offense in the NFL in the first half of the season in terms of yards, Arizona fell to No. 6 in the latter half.
The Cardinals should seek an offensive coordinator to at least help with game planning and to manage the game. There are several good candidates on the market, and we will take a look at a few of them.
Tennessee OC Jim Chaney, He has had previous stints with the L.A. Rams (finished sixth in total NFL offense) and Georgia Bulldogs (finished second in scoring in the SEC).
Former Lions HC Jim Caldwell, Caldwell’s teams have finished top 10 in passing offense four times and top 10 in points three times.
SMU HC Sonny Dykes, He was a top-10 finalist for college coach of the year and has done it all with one of the weaker recruiting classes in the nation

Report: Larry Fitzgerald tests positive for COVID-19

The Cardinals are hit again by the coronavirus. After putting safety Deionte Thompson on the COVID-19 list earlier this week, the Cardinals now lose one of the biggest names on the team.
According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo and Tom Pelissero, receiver Larry Fitzgerald has tested positive for COVID-19. He will miss this weekend’s game against the Patriots.
With Fitzgerald out this week, it will be a huge opportunity for second-year wideout Andy Isabella, who will presumably step into the role in the slot.
This will be something to continue to watch. Wth contact tracing, the Cardinals might have to add other players to the list as well

RB Kenyan Drake day-to-day but unlikely to play vs. Dolphins

Cardinals RB Kenyan Drake suffered what appeared to be a serious ankle injury in their overtime win over the Seahawks in Week 7.
Drake’s injury is not thought to be as serious as it may have looked and could be back soon but unlikely this week according to coach Kliff Kingsbury.
He’s really made good progress but I’m not sure it will be enough to get him back this week, Kingsbury told reporters on Monday.
In the meantime, Chase Edmonds will handle starting duties and he will be backed up by a committee of Jonathan Ward, Eno Benjamin and perhaps D.J. Foster
