Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Cardinals are finalizing a contract to sign veteran DL Calais Campbell to a one-year deal.
According to Ian Rapoport, Campbell receives a one-year contract for $5.5 million, which can increase to $7.5 million.
Campbell returns to the team that drafted him several years ago.
Reports this offseason mentioned that Campbell was mulling offers from the Dolphins and Ravens.
Campbell, 38, is a former second-round pick of the Cardinals back in 2008. He spent nine years in Arizona before signing a four-year, $60 million contract that included $30 million guaranteed with the Jaguars for the 2017 season.
The Jaguars traded Campbell to the Ravens, who later signed him to a two-year deal worth $27 million total with $20 million guaranteed. Campbell was undecided on returning for the 2022 season and wound up signing a two-year, $12.5 million deal with the Ravens in April of 2022.
However, the Ravens released him after one season and he later signed on with the Falcons on a one-year deal for the 2023 season. He signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Dolphins during the offseason.
In 2024, Campbell appeared in 17 games for the Dolphins and recorded 52 total tackles, five sacks, and one pass defense.
