Cardinals Trade Fitzgearld To Patriots



In a shocking move, the Arizona Cardinals have traded all-pro wide receiver Larry Fitzgearld to the New England Patriots. It's rare to see a trade in the NFL and even more rare to see a top tier player being traded. The Cardinals, who looks like they will be going in full rebuild mode, meet with Fitzgearld and his agent the past few days and talked about where the receiver would like to play. Sources say the Patriots were the only team that Fitzgearld would have liked to be traded to. The Cardinals also sent New England a 2015 7th round pick.

In return the Cards will receive the Patriots 2014 1st round pick, a 2015 5th round pick, and rookie receiver Kenbrell Thompkins. With Fitzgearld gone, sources say that recently acquired Carson Palmer could be on the move next.

DARYL RICHARDSON HAS A CAREER DAY

BOTTOM LEFT: SAM BRADFORD GETS KNOCKED OFF HIS FEET
BOTTOM RIGHT: UDFA KENBRELL THOMPKINS SHINED IN HIS DEBUT

The St. Louis Rams and Arizona Cardinals matchup was expected to be a close and that would go down to wire. But the Rams had something different in mind. Behind a strong running attack, the Rams defeated the Cardinals 37-10 in both teams season opener.

Daryl Richardson ran all over the Cardinals defense finishing with a career high 119 yards and 3 touchdowns in the win. Richardson's most impressive run was a 46 yard run in which he broke 5 tackles to score a touchdown. Jared Cook also had an impressive day hauling in 9 catches for 96 yards in his debut for the Rams.

Carson Palmer was having an ok game until he was knocked out with an arm injury early in the 2nd quarter. Palmer dropped back for a pass but was drilled into the ground by Chris Long. Palmer didn't return and will have a MRI on Monday to determine how much damage was done to his arm. Palmer was replaced by Drew Stanton who didn't play any better. Stanton went 14-38 for 168 yards and 2 int's.

Ryan Williams got the start over Rashard Mendenhall and rushed for a career best 139 yards in the loss. UDFA Kenbrell Thompkins, who was acquired in the Larry Fitzgearld trade, caught 11 passes for 141 yards in his first NFL game.
