According to Troy Renck, the Cardinals are one of the teams that’s been connected to pending Broncos free-agent DE Derek Wolfe.
Wolfe’s preference would still be to re-sign with Denver, per Renck, but he’s keeping an open mind after the Broncos seem willing to let him test the open market.
Wolfe just finished the final year of his contract and was the subject of trade rumors at the deadline in 2019. He finished the final four games of the season on injured reserve after an elbow injury.
Wolfe, 30, is a former second-round pick of the Broncos back in 2012. He just finished the final year of his four-year, $36.7 million contract that included $17.5 million guaranteed and made a base salary of $8 million for the 2019 season.
In 2019, Wolfe appeared in 12 games for the Broncos and recorded 34 total tackles, seven sacks, one forced fumble and one pass defense. He was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 46 interior defender out of 113 qualifying players.
