4 more running backs who the Arizona Cardinals could have interest in this offseason
By Jim Koch
2- Jerick McKinnon
Just last month, experienced running back Jerick McKinnon helped the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII. Jonathan Gannon, Philly's defensive coordinator during that crushing loss, got an up-close look at what the 30-year-old McKinnon can bring to the table.
The pass-receiving skills that McKinnon displayed last fall with the Chiefs were downright impressive. In his 17 appearances for the squad, the 5 foot 9, 201 pounder tallied 56 receptions for 512 yards and nine receiving touchdowns.
Having a ball-carrier that is such a pass-catching threat out of the backfield could be a valuable component for any offensive attack. Kansas City will likely want to retain a vital piece like McKinnon, so the Arizona Cardinals may have to outbid the Super Bowl champs to sign him.
