The Arizona Cardinals have invested a lot into their offensive line.
They picked up D.J. Humphries’ fifth-year option worth $9.625 million, drafted Mason Cole in the third round, signed Andre Smith to a two-year $8 million contract, and once upon a time had Mike Iupati on a five-year $40 million contract.
Justin Pugh was supposedly one of the best guards in 2018 free agency, which is why he was signed to a five-year $45 million contract.
Despite allowing only one sack on the season, Pugh, according to Pro Football Focus, is one of the worst offensive guards in the NFL.
