Projected 2020 Arizona Cardinals roster and practice squad
By Matt Murray
Wide Receiver (7): Larry Fitzgerald, DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk, Hakeem Butler, Andy Isabella, Keesean Johnson, Trent Sherfield
The receiving group may be the most important part of Kliff Kingsbury’s offense and with the addition of DeAndre Hopkins, they are starting to put together what could be the best group in the league. The starters will include future Hall-of-Famer Larry Fitzgerald, the All-Pro Hopkins and up and comer Christian Kirk.
They will add speedster Andy Isabella on four and five wide sets along with another second-year target, Hakeem Butler. Butler was lost for the 2019 season due to a hand injury however he was originally drafted to be a big outside and red zone target. The third receiver that was drafted in 2019, Keesean Johnson, played the most snaps of all the rookies and will look to fill in snaps at slot receiver as needed.
The final receiver I expect to make this group is Trent Sherfield who will add another mentor for the three second-year receivers and is a strong-bodied receiver to help on the outside behind Butler. This will be a difficult position for any undrafted free agents to break into with the returning depth. Make no mistake about it, the Arizona Cardinals are loaded with high-end talent and premier depth at the wide receiver position.
