This should be a solid signing if he’s healthy. Jones is a solid fit being very competitive and a real team first player. He runs good routes but does have some difficulty getting separation. He has excellent hands and high points well. He’s not afraid to go over the middle. The real key with this guy is play design. You have to scheme well to get him open. He’ll compete with Wilson for the number 2 spot. Neither player is especially fast, so Harrison remains the deep threat. Still he’s durable, a willing blocker and solid in the red zone. I would have liked more speed but he’s happy being a complimentary player.
I read is was a PCL injury that was lingering last year and he's healthy now. Hopefully that's true.

Why only a one year deal though? Injury history? Regardless, glad they signed him. We needed some more quality players at the position.

didnt anticipate this

its hardly big $ -- and I think the collective bargaining agreement makes it cap impact even lower --

Here were the wide receiver options.

Old/washed/injured guys: Keenan Allen, Amari Cooper, Deandre Hopkins, Mike Williams, Brandin Cooks, Stefon Diggs, Mecole Hardman, Tyler Boyd, MVS, Nelson Agholor, Tyler Lockett, Robert Woods, JuJu, Tim Patrick,

Guys in their prime: Elijah Moore, Nick Westbrooke, Noah Brown, Olamide Zacheus, Van Jefferson, Tyler Johnson

Talented locker room cancer: Dionte Johnson

With the Zay Jones resigning I'm guessing we're not adding anyone else.

Maybe they forgot he was on the team last year and thought he was just a FA on the market?

The Arizona Cardinals are bringing back vet WR Zay Jones on a one-year deal, per @Schultz_Report. Zay caught 8 passes for 84 yards in 11 games for the Cards last season. He was suspended the first five games of 2024.

No doubt the suspension set both parties back. And I’m pretty sure he couldn’t practice during that suspension either. He actually played well the last couple of games. Either way, the Cardinals need MORE help at WR this year.
