The big news for the Arizona Cardinals and the NFL on Tuesday was the announcement that veteran defensive lineman Calais Campbell agreed to a one-year contract to return to Arizona and play for the team that drafted him. Campbell revealed why he chose to come back to the Cardinals eight years after he left in free agency.

Gone from the room are three players that combined to play 41 games with 17 starts in 2024: Roy Lopez (16/16), Khyiris Tonga (13/1) and Naquan Jones (12/0). Lopez is with the Detroit Lions, Tonga with the New England Patriots and Jones with the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Arizona Cardinals are expected to sign veteran defensive lineman Calais Campbell to a one-year deal to officially mark the return of the 38-year-old for his 18th NFL season in 2025, according to a report from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
