    Cardinals Cover 2 – Draft Picks Kaleb Proctor And Karson Sharar Share Their NFL Paths
    2026/06/29
    Ep. 1014 – They were the only defensive players the Cardinals selected in April's NFL Draft, both coming on Day 3 after productive college careers. Defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor was taken in the fourth round, while inside linebacker Karson Sharar was selected in the sixth. Recently, Craig Grialou caught up with Proctor, the first FCS player drafted this year. After that conversation, Craig hands the microphone to Paul Calvisi, who sat down with Sharar to discuss his time at Iowa and what he hopes to accomplish as a rookie. Unfortunately, both players dealt with injuries during the offseason. Proctor's injury is expected to keep him out into the regular season.

  • Cardinals Cover 2 - Reggie Virgil, a Self-Described ‘Big Energy Guy,’ Eager to Learn

    Cardinals Cover 2 - Reggie Virgil, a Self-Described ‘Big Energy Guy,’ Eager to Learn
    2026/06/22
    Ep. 1013 - There’s no mistaking the smile. New Cardinals wide receiver Reggie Virgil is a happy man. He’s happy to have been drafted. He’s happy the Cardinals took a chance on him. He’s happy for the opportunity to learn from the number of talented pass catchers on the team. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman talk about their early impressions and interactions with the fifth-round pick out of Texas Tech plus what role(s) Virgil may play in his first NFL season. Then the guys hear from the man himself. Recently, Virgil joined Paul Calvisi to discuss his background, college career, how fast he really is, and why he may be “a little annoying” around Marvin Harrison Jr. and Michael Wilson.

  • Cardinals Cover 2 - Love The Depth At Running Back

    Cardinals Cover 2 - Love The Depth At Running Back
    2026/06/17
    Ep. 1012 - It’s a good problem to have. Especially given what the Cardinals went through at running back last season. The additions of Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier have increased the depth and significantly - at least on paper - upgraded the position. Now how everything shakes out once the team breaks training camp is anyone's guess. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman go in depth about running back, including how head coach Mike LaFleur may divvy up snaps and carries among the different players. From there, Craig and Zach turn their attention to what the Cardinals did to address the run defense, specifically signing Andrew Billings and Roy Lopez in free agency. It’s a run-heavy show, Bird Gang.

  • Cardinals Cover 2 - Offseason Takeaways From Mike LaFleur’s First Work As Head Coach

    Cardinals Cover 2 - Offseason Takeaways From Mike LaFleur’s First Work As Head Coach
    2026/06/10
    Ep. 1011 - And that’s a wrap; the offseason work - the official work, anyway - is done. Nothing now until training camp. That doesn’t stop Craig Grialou and Darren Urban from looking back at what the Cardinals accomplished over the past nine weeks under first-year head coach Mike LaFleur. Craig and Darren discuss the good news like the overall health of the team, especially about what LaFleur had to say about Garrett Williams; the guys also talk about the uncertainty at quarterback, how LaFleur handles rookies, and the one position battle that’s been settled. From there, Craig and Darren speak about how many Cardinals they think will make this year’s NFL Top 100 list and whether or not they believe Calais Campbell, who has said once again “this is probably going to be my last year.”

  • Cardinals Cover 2 - Health Not Role (Or Expectations) The Focus Of Marvin Harrison Jr.

    Cardinals Cover 2 - Health Not Role (Or Expectations) The Focus Of Marvin Harrison Jr.
    2026/06/03
    Ep. 1010 - Your best ability is availability. Yes, it’s cliché. But it’s also true. Last season Marvin Harrison Jr. was not available for every game as he was as a rookie in 2024. To this day that bothers him. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman talk about what they heard from Harrison this week before getting into a discussion about expectations and a likely role for the former first-round pick in a Mike LaFleur-coached offense. From there, the conversation turns to Josh Sweat and his future, Sean Murphy-Bunting and his comeback from a knee injury, and is this really going to happen? Is Aaron Donald really considering coming out of retirement? The Rams with Donald AND Myles Garrett?!

  • Cardinals Cover 2 - ‘Great Guy’ Gardner Minshew Doing ‘The Best I Can’ To Help Cardinals

    Cardinals Cover 2 - ‘Great Guy’ Gardner Minshew Doing ‘The Best I Can’ To Help Cardinals
    2026/05/28
    Ep. 1009 - Signed back in March, Gardner Minshew is currently QB1. How long will he last in that role? Good question. For his part, it doesn’t sound like Minshew is all that worried about his role, at least not publicly. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman react to hearing from Minshew for the first time since he arrived in the desert. He spoke after Wednesday’s practice, which was the second OTA open to the media. Craig and Zach discuss what they saw and a lot about what they heard from head coach Mike LaFleur and safety Budda Baker, who mentioned that there’s a ping pong table in the locker room. Interesting. Also, the preseason schedule is finalized; just when are the Cardinals playing their four games?

The who and the where have been known for months. Now the when, how the 17 games over 18 weeks will be stacked. And let’s be honest, the schedule is a tough one. It’s front-loaded with road trips and back-loaded with home games. Craig and Zach go game-by-game, looking at the matchups and the storylines, including the number of different reunions, both coaches and players facing their former teams.

    Cardinals Cover 2 - Jeremiyah Love, Carson Beck Join Entire Rookie Class On The Field
    2026/05/11
    Ep. 1007 - It was just the start, but no less important. For the first time since the draft, the rookie class, including first-round pick Jeremiyah Love, was on the field, wearing Cardinals gear and doing football-related activities. It wasn’t a full-blown practice, but it did represent the first time this group of players experienced life in the NFL. Their college days are no more. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss what they saw and, more importantly, what they heard both on and off the field during rookie minicamp; from Love describing how he plans to handle his life-changing money to Carson Beck and head coach Mike LaFleur talking about the importance of a quarterback’s cadence. Plus, we now know when the 2026 schedule will be released.
