Heading into free agency, the Arizona Cardinals have two positions on the offensive line to fill. The retirement of Evan Mathis created a hole at right guard. The other open spot is at center.
Rumors are swirling that long-time New York Jets center Nick Mangold may be released by the club. The veteran is set to count $9.075 million against the team’s salary cap, all of which becomes available for the Jets if they part ways with the mainstay of their line.
At this stage of his career, Mangold’s skills would be better utilized on a contending team like Arizona.
