Cards Hold Workout with Three Players
The Arizona Cardinals worked out quarterback Ricky Ray, defensive back Eric Joyce, and defensive back Todd Howard on Monday, February 09.
Ray spent the last two years playing for the Canadian Football League’s Edmonton Eskimos. Prior to his stint with the CFL, Ray played seven games for the Fresno Frenzy of Arena Football2.
In his two seasons at Sacramento State, Ray completed .619 percent of his passes to become the school’s completion percentage leader, and also ranks third in touchdowns with 33 and fourth in yards (4,622) and completions (347).
Joyce, originally signed by the Cards in 2002 as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee State, spent training camp and the preseason with Arizona before his release at the 53-man cut. Joyce was signed by the Chicago Bears in November 2002 to their practice squad and also spent training camp and the preseason of 2003 with Chicago. Recently, Joyce has been in training camp with the Georgia Force, an arena football team.
Howard, originally signed as an undrafted free agent out of Michigan by the St. Louis Rams in 2002, played in the preseason and was re-signed to the Rams practice squad for the final nine weeks of the 2002 campaign. He was allocated by the Rams to the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europe in the spring of 2003 and spent training camp and preseason with the Rams before his release in late August. Howard was on the Rams practice squad for a week in October in 2003 and during the playoffs in January of 2004.
