  • It's linebacker Thursday Kent Somers' Cardinals Blog | Arizona Republic Reporters just met with inside linebacker Larry Foote and outside linebacker Joey Porter, both free agents. Neither has been made an offer yet. Foote said the Cardinals are his first choice. Porter said he has heard from other teams and might visit.

I feel more comfortable with a 3-4 (defense). Pittsburgh wants me back but I want to be a Cardinal and hopefull we ...read the rest of this post
