NFL Teams Taking Wild Swings With Rookies
Speaking of building for the season, over in the NFL, we're already seeing some wild rookie drama unfold. Remember all that draft hype? Well, the Arizona Cardinals just officially signed their fourth-round pick, defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor, to a four-year deal. You'd think that's a straightforward win for a team looking to rebuild, right?
Nope. This dude, Proctor, reportedly tore his meniscus during spring practice. And get this, according to his head coach Mike LaFleur, this injury could keep him sidelined for the *entire year*. Talk about a gut punch for a rookie and for the Cardinals. This kid put up serious numbers in college, too, racking up 13 tackles for loss and nine sacks for Southeastern Louisiana during the 2025 season. Imagine dropping a fourth-round pick on a four-year deal, and he might not see the field once in year one. Meanwhile, their third-round quarterback, Carson Beck, is still waiting to sign his deal. It's a reminder of how quickly things can go sideways with these early picks and the risks teams take.
It just makes you appreciate how our teams, like the Seahawks under Mike Macdonald, work hard to build smart rosters and keep our players healthy. While other teams are dealing with these curveballs and tough breaks, our Mariners are out there grinding and picking up crucial wins. Let's keep that momentum going, Seattle! Next game, we gotta be loud for the M's! Go Hawks, Go M's!
