NFL Exec: QB Malik Cunningham Said He's Open to Being WR in NFL Ahead of 2023 Draft

Louisville quarterback Malik Cunningham's path to the NFL might require him to play a different position.

One NFC executive told NFL.com's Tom Pelissero that Cunningham said he would workout as a wide receiver throughout the predraft process.

"I think he's a receiver. And the kid said he would do that through the process," the executive said. "Stud of a kid. I just don't see quarterback out of him."

A fifth-year senior in 2022 and four-year starter for the Cardinals, Cunningham ranks fourth in school history in passing yards (9,660) and fifth in touchdown passes (70).
