Cardinals Offensive Player of the Year
Top candidates: Kyler Murray, Larry Fitzgerald, David Johnson, Christian Kirk, Zane Gonzalez
If Murray is the Rookie of the Year, then most certainly he’d be up for Cardinals Offensive Player of the Year. He’ll have plenty of competition however.
Larry Fitzgerald returns for his 16th season and some milestones to achieve. You can bet Murray will be doing everything he can to feed Fitz the ball this season.
Kirk had a great season in 2018 as a rookie. He was the Cardinals Rookie of the Year last season.
It is safe to say many would love to be able see Johnson produce the same kind of numbers he did in 2016. Going into a new era with Kingsbury, we aren’t exactly sure what we will see but know we are all excited to find out.
If the Cardinals have trouble getting into the end zone, which apparently some believe will be the case, then it will be Gonzalez time. He should put up a lot of points but let’s hope it’s for extra points and not field goals.
Winner: Fitzgerald
