Calais Campbell

Cardinals signed DL Calais Campbell, formerly of the Dolphins, to a one-year, $5.5 million contract.

Entering his age-39 season, Campbell is simply a marvel. A magnificent run-stuffer even at his advanced age (he had an 85.9 PFF run defense rating in 2024) and still productive enough as a pass-rusher to be a good third- or fourth-rusher on an above-average defense. With the additions of Josh Sweat, Campbell, and Dalvin Tomlinson, the Cardinals hope they have done enough to bring the floor of the defense up above where it was last season. It’s a good front on paper, even if Arizona’s cornerbacks make us a little weary of forecasting them as a fantasy-worthy defense in 2025. Campbell last played for the Cardinals in 2016, if you’d like to feel a little older today.
