Arizona trimmed its roster to 53 ahead of today’s deadline, releasing Jammie Robinson after a preseason push at cornerback. Robinson, a Florida State product, showcased energy and versatility but faced a crowded depth chart in Arizona and could land back on the practice squad if unclaimed on waivers. The Cardinals’ cut list spans multiple positions, signaling a broader evaluation of both veteran depth and young upside as they seek waiver-wire upgrades and practice-squad flexibility.

Fantasy players should monitor how the Cardinals reassemble their CB room and whether any cuts land on practice squads in the coming days. The combination of new depth and potential waiver-day movement could create short-term opportunities or shifting roles for Cardinals pass-catchers and rookies. With a number of the released players having preseason involvement, expect late-week signings or claims that could impact special-teams and situational roles in Week 1 preparations.

26 days remain until the Arizona Cardinals kick off the 2025 season at New Orleans. The No. 26 jersey in Cardinal lore has been a revolving door, worn by a handful of players who stuck around a year or two more often than becoming long-term fixtures. The current No. 26 is Jammie Robinson, battling to secure a spot after spending time on the roster late last season. The ledger of 26s stretches back to 1930s rosters and through the modern era, revealing a jersey used for depth and opportunity rather than marquee stardom.

Notable recent names include Eno Benjamin (2021-22) and Josh Jackson (2022), while Beanie Wells had a key 2011 season with over 1,000 rushing yards that still stands out in a long line of single-year wearers. Rashad Johnson is often cited as the most impactful Cardinal to wear 26, but the sequence underscores how the number has rarely signaled a sustained, defining run. The Saints loom in Week 1 as this jersey-docket continues to be a bridge to future roster moves and the evolving 2025 Cardinals squad.

The Arizona Cardinals are gearing up for the 2024 NFL season with training camp set to open on July 22. Among the players expected to compete for a roster spot is safety Jammie Robinson, a fifth-round draft pick from Florida State. Robinson was initially drafted by the Carolina Panthers in 2023, where he had a limited impact, playing only a handful of snaps in his rookie season. After being waived in December, he joined the Cardinals but remained inactive for the last three games of the season. Now, as he prepares for his first full training camp with Arizona, the focus will be on whether he can carve out a role in the secondary and contribute meaningfully to the team’s defense.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made a significant addition to their quarterback roster by selecting Will Howard from Ohio State in the sixth round of the draft. Joining Mason Rudolph and former Kansas State teammate Skylar Thompson, Howard represents the team’s first quarterback pick since Kenny Pickett in 2022. The Steelers plan to bring four quarterbacks to training camp, leaving one spot open, potentially for free agent Aaron Rodgers, whose future remains uncertain. Coach Mike Tomlin expressed enthusiasm about the possibility of adding Rodgers, highlighting the productive discussions the team has had with him.

Howard brings a championship pedigree that impressed the Steelers during the playoffs, throwing for over 630 yards and five touchdowns while completing 74% of his passes. He completed 73% of all throws during the season, showcasing his accuracy and ability under pressure. Offensive coordinator Arthur Smith noted Howard's performance in critical moments, particularly in the national championship game. The Steelers also drafted fellow Ohio State player Jack Sawyer, adding to the excitement and camaraderie for Howard as they join forces in Pittsburgh.
