Back in March, the Arizona Cardinals decided to roll the dice. Free agency had just gotten underway, and the club was looking for help at the wide receiver spot. The Cards took a look at the available pass-catchers, and discovered an interesting scenario being presented before them.
Kevin White, the seventh-overall pick of the 2015 draft, was searching for employment. Arizona was intrigued, and proceeded to sign the former Chicago Bear to a one-year, $1.5 million contract. An extremely reasonable deal for a player with White’s pedigree, correct?
The truth of the matter is, it was never White’s talent that was in question.
