Some rookies come in and make an impact immediately. Others have expectations, but fail to live up. Charles Robinson wrote an article for Yahoo! Sports that featured a second year player on each NFC team who needed "a reboot."
Who is that guy for the Arizona Cardinals? It would be none other than the oft-injured tight end Troy Niklas.
Niklas was supposed to have the raw potential and size to come in and be an immediate factor on offense, but never got much of a chance. Instead, Niklas struggled with myriad injuries, including a hernia, broken hand and sprained ankles.
