11. Brett Hundley

The hometown high school hero returns. Out of Chandler High School east of Phoenix, Hundley returns home to play for the Cardinals. The fifth-year quarterback was drafted by the Green Bay Packers and played last year for the Seattle Seahawks.

Hundley was a pretty big deal coming out of UCLA after his days at Chandler High. He found himself though as a backup to Aaron Rodgers.

Rodgers is the man in Green Bay, so Hundley was never going to get a shot to start there unless injury occurred. It did and ended up starting nine games in 2017. He threw nine touchdowns passes but 12 interceptions.

He was traded to the Seattle Seahawks right before the start of the 2018 season. However being behind Russell Wilson there, he never had a chance to even get into a game.

Now he comes home to be the backup to whoever will lead the Cardinals, be it Josh Rosen or maybe Kyler Murray? One thing is for sure unless an injury occurs here, Hundley finds himself in a familiar spot.
