Trent Sherfield

He had another great week. From a guy who looked like he could have trouble making the roster, even if the Cardinals decided to keep seven receivers, to a guy that right now quite honestly looks like he could start.

With Larry Fitzgerald, Christian Kirk, and KeeSean Johnson, maybe number four receiver would suit him just fine. He certainly has something going with backup quarterback Brett Hundley, who appears to have the backup spot solidified.

Now Sherfield needs to get some rapport going with Kyler Murray. Sherfield has played so well, he may not even need to play in the last preseason game on August 29th against the Denver Broncos.

That’s the way it looks now however. If he can go out and put on the same performance against the Minnesota Vikings on the road, let’s see where the chips fall for him. He is the one bubble guy on the roster that has made this team.
