As the Arizona Cardinals are in preparation for the season with training camp now in full swing in Glendale at University of Phoenix Stadium, we are going to take a look at the team roster from A to Z as it currently stands.  Next up is defensive end Frostee Rucker.

2013 season: Rucker played in all 16 games last season, starting one for the Cards.  He had 11 tackles and one sack.

2014 season:  Now going into his ninth season in the NFL and his second in Arizona, Rucker is a decent backup and looks to play the same role this upcoming season.  He was a starter all of 2012 for the Cleveland Browns and started 11 of the 16 games he played in for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2011.  With the depth and talent ahead of him in Arizona, it is tough to slot him in as a full-time starter.  I still like what he has to offer and it is nice to know a player of his caliber can come off the bench.
