The Arizona Cardinals, amongst other professional franchises, noticed the speedy llamas. The llamas were able to keep people chasing them for quite some time. There were two of them. Although they were technically alpacas, tons of llama jokes ensued. Of course the Cardinals got in on the fun. When it’s the off-season, anything will get noticed.
The #AZCardinals have agreed to one-year deals with the #llamasontheloose. Each llama will earn 2,340 lbs of hay. Steve Keim does it again.

Then the speedy llamas were recognized by the Sacramento Kings.
All in all it was in good fun and the llamas were eventually caught separately. They were lassoed in fact. But the moves they made could certainly catch the eye of any NFL scout. Welcome the llamas to the Arizona Cardinals! Video of the chase is below.
