Can confirm it’s a two-year contract extension for Arizona Cardinals RB James Conner.A huge, huge deal to get done ahead of the offseason.

Smart, lets hope his dominance continues well into next year.
Nothing wrong with that

Low risk move for a team that will need to use cap space and isn’t a big FA player.
People don't like signing older RBs, but the contracts have gotten so cheap that they're by far the most efficient use of the money. Conner's getting 3/4s of what Cole Kmet gets.
When the Giants didn't resign Saquon do you know who they were able to sign with the money saved? Devin Singletary and Drew Lock, that's it.

Yup. He probably will not live up to this deal in terms of production but that is fine for the next two years IMO. Benson will hopefully continue to eat into his snaps and be ready to take over by 2026.

If our roster looked different that 9.5 mil might matter more but it doesn’t so nothing to sweat about.

Probably right. Who better to mentor Benson.

Needed to happen - dude sets the tone for the team.
Structure of deal will be important (guaranteed money).
I think Budda gets extended as well or franchised.
Kyzir white should get an extension as well.

Yeah. I mean, this is a situation where making a “bad deal” just doesn’t matter that much.

It’s two years, the structure won’t matter much. It could be fully guaranteed and for this deal it wouldn’t matter.

James Conner will turn 30 in May, but he has not slowed down any and his value to Arizona has been clearly demonstrated. Arizona is 5-1 in games when Conner has reached 100 scrimmage yards, and 1-4 in games when he has not.

I would think it would be beneficial for Cardinals to have an out in 2nd year without a huge cap hit.
2 years/19M with 10M guaranteed. (edit...this is my guess)

The Arizona Cardinals are keeping James Conner around.

Heart and soul player. Love the guy. Happy with this.

Good for him. Clearly a second-tier contract for a second-tier player at his position. He’s worth more to us than anyone else.
Wouldn’t be surprised to see White get more.
