Veteran CB Robert Alford visited with Cardinals

After spending the past few years in Arizona, Robert Alford is considering re-signing with the organization. According to Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com, the cornerback visited the Cardinals on Thursday.

Alford originally inked a three-year, $22.5M deal with the Cardinals back in 2019, but he missed his first year with the organization thanks to a broken leg. A torn pectoral also knocked him out for the entirety of the 2020 season, and the Cardinals ended up cutting him last March.

He re-signed with the organization two days later, and he finally made his debut with the team during the 2021 season. He ultimately got into 13 games (five starts) this past season, collecting 37 tackles, four passes defended and one interception.

The 2013 second-round pick spent the first six seasons of his career with the Falcons, starting 76 of his 88 games while picking off 10 passes.
