Cardinals’ secondary ranked woefully low by PFF

The Arizona Cardinals’ secondary struggled late last season following the injuries to defensive lineman J.J. Watt and then cornerback Robert Alford. Alford was the team’s best man-to-man corner on the perimeter and Watt was holding the team’s pass rush together, making it easier on the secondary.

Despite their success early on in the season, Pro Football Focus is not particularly fond of the team’s secondary entering this season. As a matter of fact, they are ranked towards the bottom of the league.

PFF ranked the Cardinals secondary No. 27 out of 32 teams in the NFL in the tier of “serious flaws.” This comes despite the Pro Bowl selection to Budda Baker and the breakout season for Jalen Thompson.
