Cardinals latest news and notes

Cardinals | Ryan Williams admits he was scared to run

Arizona Cardinals RB Ryan Williams admitted he was scared to run the ball last season on his surgically repaired right knee.

Cardinals | DEs like potential in new scheme

Arizona Cardinals DEs Calais Campbell and Darnell Dockett have expressed optimism over their potential in Todd Bowles' defense. Though the coordinator said there isn't a dramatic difference in the new 3-4, which replaces Ray Horton's from last year, they're changing from two-gap DE attacks to one-gap, opening them up for more outside attacks on offensive linemen instead of merely taking up space.

Cardinals | Bruce Arians critical of offense

Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians was disappointed with his team during organized team activities Tuesday, May 21, and he singled out several players for making mental mistakes two weeks in a row. The Cardinals were ranked dead last in the league in total offense last year.

Cardinals | Roster moves

The Arizona Cardinals signed undrafted free-agent WR Charles Hawkins (Southern) Tuesday, May 21, and waived WR Javone Lawson (Achilles') in a corresponding move.

Cardinals | Jeff King had knee surgery

Updating a previous report, Arizona Cardinals TE Jeff King (knee) underwent knee surgery early in the offseason. The coaching staff hopes King can return to practice in early June.
