James Conner Stays with Arizona After Revising Contract Terms
James Conner will continue his career with the Arizona Cardinals after revising his contract terms. The veteran running back has made a decision that allows him to stay with the team through the 2026 season.
Contract Details and Salary Implications
While specific details of the revised contract remain undisclosed, reports suggest Conner has taken a pay cut. His previous salary cap hit was projected at $9.8 million for the upcoming season. This adjustment is likely necessary due to his age and injury history.
Age and Injury Considerations
- Conner will be turning 31 in May.
- He suffered a season-ending foot injury during Week Three of last season.
The Cardinals were unwilling to allocate a significant financial commitment to a running back in Conner’s situation. However, they believe he still has valuable contributions to make to the offense.
Future Prospects
Conner is preparing for his 10th NFL season and sixth with the Cardinals. As he adjusts to his new contract, the team and fans are hopeful that he can bounce back from his injury and perform at a high level.
