James Conner signs with Arizona Cardinals

Former Pitt running back James Conner is on the move, as he entered free agency in March and signed a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals on Tuesday. The move brings an end to Conner’s four-year stint with the Pittsburgh Steelers and will see him continue his career in a place where other Pitt alums have thrived.
