Cardinals Rookies

 

By Kevin Bonneville 

With training camp set to start, the Cardinals only have one rookie yet to sign as linebacker Daryl Washington signed a four-year contract on Friday.  The terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed.

Washington was drafted in the second round, 47th overall pick, by Arizona back in April.  In his senior season at TCU, he was a first-team All-American and earned All-Mountain West Conference honors after having 109 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, three sacks and two interceptions.

The rookie will be backing up Gerald Hayes, who has battled a back injury throughout most of the off-season.  He could also battle Paris Lenon for a starting job at right inside linebacker.

Dan Williams is now the only pick unsigned and the organization will continue to hash out a deal with him.  Don’t expect it to be long before he signs on the dotted line because they want to get him in camp on time so he can learn all he can at the nose tackle spot.
