Cardinals Cover 2 - Offseason Takeaways, What Has Been Learned
16/06/2025 Duración: 30minEp. 893 - Seven weeks. From the start of the offseason strength and conditioning program to the final day of minicamp.

Cardinals Cover 2 - Josh Sweat ‘Can Impact The Game’ In Different Ways
11/06/2025 Duración: 39minEp. 892 - There’s no question Josh Sweat can get after opposing quarterbacks. It’s why he was targeted in free agency and ultimately landed a sizable contract to leave the east coast for the desert southwest.

Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss what that means within the defensive scheme, Sweat reuniting with Jonathan Gannon and Nick Rallis plus how Sweat is embracing his role as being the guy on defense.
