Decision at running back looming for 2021 Arizona Cardinals

The 2021 offseason will be a busy period of time for the Arizona Cardinals front office. General manager Steve Keim and his underlings will have decisions to make on a bevy of prospective free agents. A salary-cap number that’s expected to shrink will not make things any easier for the Cardinals management team.

One player who’s career with the Cards is hanging in the balance is running back Kenyan Drake. Last March, the 26-year old ball-carrier signed a transition tag tender that kept him in the desert for the 2020 campaign. Drake will collect $8.483 million this season, with hopes of parlaying his current deal into a multi-year contract in the coming months.
