Last month, the Arizona Cardinals knew they needed to make an addition to the cornerback room after the unit struggled towards the end of the 2021 season. They did so, signing former Minnesota Vikings first-round pick Jeff Gladney.
Gladney, who was released by the Vikings due to domestic abuse allegations, was proven unanimously innocent in court and suddenly found himself a widely sought-after free agent. A first round selection in 2020, Gladney still has an unknown ceiling and one that could pay off well for the Cards.
They anticipate him being a starter and they love his upside.
