  • Cardinals' Dante Stills: Remains productive in second year

    Stills finished the 2024 season with 42 total tackles (20 solo), including 4.5 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed and a forced fumble over 16 games.

    Still took a slight step up in 2024 in terms of his sack production, adding an extra sack compared to his rookie campaign in 2023. The defensive lineman could step into a starting role in 2025 with current starting defensive end L.J. Collier entering the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

  • Cardinals' Dadrion Taylor-Demerson: Strong rookie season in 2024

    Taylor-Demerson finished the 2024 season with 37 total tackles (23 solo), five passes defensed, and a forced fumble over 17 games.

    Taylor-Demerson split time between the defensive unit and special teams in his rookie season, operating as a primary backup option behind Jalen Thompson at strong safety. Taylor-Demerson figures to operate in a similar role with the team in 2025, but he'll likely look to carve out a little more usage on the defensive side of the ball.

  • Cardinals' Krys Barnes: Productive in limited role in 2024

    Barnes finished the 2024 season with 35 total tackles (19 solo), including 2.0 sacks, over 17 games.

    Barnes was able to appear in all 17 games with Arizona this season, spending the majority of his time operating as a special-teams option. The linebacker was able to notch a career-high 2.0 sacks while playing 201 total defensive snaps. Barnes will end the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and he'll likely have no trouble finding another suitor in 2025.

  • Cardinals' L.J. Collier: Career year in 2024

    Collier finished the 2024 season with 29 total tackles (13 solo), including 3.5 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed and a fumble recovery over 17 games.

    Collier had a career year in 2024, setting new career highs in tackles and sacks, while appearing in all 17 games for the first time in his six years in the NFL. The defensive end will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and his 2024 performance will certainly draw the attention of plenty potential suitors.

  • Cardinals' Starling Thomas: Progresses in second NFL season

    Thomas finished the 2024 regular season with 47 tackles (31 solo), six pass defenses and one forced fumble across 17 games.

    Thomas started in all but two games during the 2024 season and played at least 30 defensive snaps in 16 of 17 contests. The second-year corner out of UAB has yet to record an interception in a regular-season game, but he's made strides in a young Cardinals secondary consisting of Garrett Williams and rookies Max Melton (wrist) and Elijah Jones (ankle). Thomas and Sean Murphy-Bunting should be the top candidates to start at outside corner for the 2025 season, though both of them will get competition from Melton and Jones during training camp.

  • Cardinals' Roy Lopez: Productive 2024 campaign

    Lopez finished the 2024 season with 28 total tackles (10 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding three passes defensed, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 16 games.

    Lopez remained a productive asset on the Cardinals' defensive line this season, notching his first career forced fumble in Week 1 versus the Bills. The defensive tackle will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, potentially looking for a new squad in 2025.

  • Cardinals' Max Melton: Heavy usage in rookie season

    Melton played all 17 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with 51 tackles (36 solo), five pass defenses and one forced fumble.

    Melton was one of seven rookies selected by the Cardinals during the 2024 NFL Draft, and the second-round cornerback out of Rutgers was arguably the most consistent. He finished third among Arizona's corners in combined tackles behind Garrett Williams (58) and Sean Murphy-Bunting (52). In addition to seeing heavy snaps with the Cardinals' first-team defense, Melton showed his value and versatility by serving as a gunner on special teams. Melton and fellow rookie corner Elijah Jones (ankle) will have an opportunity to earn a larger role in the Cardinals' defense in the offseason during OTAs, minicamp and training camp.

  • Cardinals' Sean Murphy-Bunting: Logs three picks in 2024

    Murphy-Bunting finished the 2024 regular seasons with 52 tackles (30 solo), five pass defenses (three interceptions) and two forced fumbles across 15 games.

    Murphy-Bunting signed a three-year, $25.5 million contract with the Cardinals in March of 2024 after playing with the Titans in 2023. He finished second in combined tackles among Cardinals' corners behind Garrett Williams (58), and Murphy-Bunting's three interceptions matched a career high he set during his rookie season in 2019 with the Buccaneers. Murphy-Bunting and Starling Thomas project to be Arizona's starting outside corners in 2025, though they should get competition from rookies Max Melton (wrist) and Elijah Jones (ankle) during training camp.

  • Cardinals' Zaven Collins: Sets career high in sacks

    Collins played all 17 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with 57 tackles (33 solo), including 5.0 sacks, one pass defense and two forced fumbles.

    Collins has accumulated 98 combined tackles over the past two seasons, which is less than his total from the 2022 campaign (100 combined tackles across 16 regular-season games). However, Collins has developed into more of a pass-rushing threat, leading the Cardinals with 5.0 sacks in 2024. He'll look to develop his pass-rushing abilities during the offseason and improve on his numbers during the 2025 campaign.

  • Cardinals' Naquan Jones: Career high in sacks in 2024

    Jones finished the 2024 season with 27 total tackles (11 solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed over 12 games.

    Jones signed with the Cardinals in late September, nearly matching his career high of 29 tackles in 2021. The defensive tackle did set a new high-water mark with 3.0 sacks and he'll enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, potentially looking for a new destination for his fifth NFL campaign.

  • Cardinals' Julian Okwara: Increased workload in 2024

    Okwara finished the 2024 season with 18 total tackles (10 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding a pass defensed over 13 games.

    Okwara operated as a depth option at linebacker for the Cardinals in 2024, stepping up on occasion to occupy a significant role on the team's defense. The linebacker matched a career-high in 13 games played and his 18 total tackles were the second highest total of his five-year NFL career. Okwara will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and he'll likely look for another opportunity elsewhere in an attempt to find a starting role.

  • Cardinals' Baron Browning: Limited production in 2024

    Browning finished the 2024 season with 21 total tackles (12 solo), including 2.0 sacks, over 13 games with the Broncos and Cardinals.

    Browning suffered a foot injury early in the season, forcing him to be on injured reserve with the Broncos for four weeks before returning in Week 7. The linebacker was then traded to the Cardinals on Nov. 4, spending the final eight games of the year with Arizona. Browning's 21 total tackles were a career low and he'll enter the offseason looking for his next opportunity as an unrestricted free agent.

  • Cardinals' Garrett Williams: Two picks in second NFL season

    Williams played in 16 regular-season games in 2024 and finished with 58 tackles (40 solo), nine pass defenses (including two interceptions) and one forced fumble.

    The 2023 third-round pick played in just nine regular-season games in his rookie year while recovering from a torn ACL he suffered during his senior year at Syracuse. Williams played all but one game in 2024 and primarily as the Cardinals' slot corner. He could have that same role in 2025, though he could get some competition in training camp from rookie third-rounder Elijah Jones, who missed the entire 2024 campaign due to an ankle injury he suffered in the preseason.
