Cardinals Discussing Contract Extension With FS Kerry Rhodes

Mike Jurecki of XTRA Phoenix reports that the Arizona Cardinals are discussing a two-year contract extension with FS Kerry Rhodes.

I’m hearing the Cards are discussing a two year contract extension w/ FS Kerry Rhodes, who’s under contract thru 2013 @ 4.5 million.

Rhodes, 30, has been very productive for the Cardinals in the past few years and even rates as the No. 4 safety in the league this season according to Pro Football Focus. As Jurecki points out, Rhodes has one year remaining on his current deal, but he’s clearly deserving of an extension. A deal could be done in the coming weeks, but there’s at least a reasonable chance that discussions could continue into the offseason.
