BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills have traded guard Cody Ford to the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for a 2023 fifth-round pick.
Ford was initially drafted by the Bills in the second round of the 2019 NFL draft out of Oklahoma to be the team's right tackle of the future opposite left tackle Dion Dawkins. Things, however, did not go according to plan.
After playing right tackle in 15 games his rookie year, Ford only played guard the past two seasons. He spent 2020 at both guard spots, playing a combined seven games and suffering a season-ending knee injury.
