In 10 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, linebacker Bobby Wagner played 18 games against the Arizona Cardinals. He missed two games in that decade. In those 18 games, he had 164 tackles, two sacks, 10 quarterback hits, two interceptions, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery he returned for a touchdown.
After the Seahawks released him, it appeared the Cardinals might not have to deal with him. However, the entire rest of the division, including the Cardinals, had interest in him.
On Thursday, he agreed a five-year, $50 million deal to sign with the defending champion Los Angeles Rams, so the Cardinals not only will continue to face Wagner twice a year, they now must face him on a defense that now has one of the best in the NFL at every level of the defense.
