Update:
Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic reports that the Cardinals will in factย receive CB Javier Arenas from the Chiefs in return forย FBย Anthony Sherman.ย Both players will still need to pass aย physicalย before the deal can be finalized.
———-
Adam Caplan reports that an NFL source has informed him that the Cardinals areย expectedย to tradeย FB Anthony Sherman to the Chiefs.
- Caplan mentions thatย the Cardinals could be targeting a cornerback such asย Javier Arenas in return for Sherman.ย
- Caplan adds that this remains anย “unconfirmed rumor” at this point in time.ย
Cardinals new head coach Bruce Arians previous mentioned that he’s “not a fullback guy,” so it’s not all that surprising to see Arizona try acquire something inย returnย forย Sherman.
Sherman, 24, was aย fifth-round pick back in 2011 and has been the Cardinals lead blocker for the past two seasons.ย Andy Reid is known for employing a fullback in his west coast offense, so we’ll have to see if they’re able to reach an agreement at some point in the near future.
