NFL Rumors: Latest Buzz Surrounding Ryan Fitzpatrick, Nick Foles and More
- Updated: July 21, 2016
So much for a quiet lead into NFL training camps.
Normally, this time of year doesn’t offer much in the way of rumors. The stray veteran making a comeback or simply taking his time grabs a headline here or there, but otherwise it’s a time when teams get the new additions on board and get to work in the heat.

With Tyrann Mathieu likely opening training camp on the physically unable to perform list, according to Kyle Odegard of the team’s website, it makes sense the Cardinals would want to bring on extra bodies in the secondary and see who makes it through to the final 53.
Arizona’s interest, though, might play in Culliver’s favor if it encourages more teams to look his way.
Nick Foles Watch
Remember Nick Foles?
