Before the season started, the Arizona Cardinals believed they had one of the best backfields in the NFL.
Kenyan Drake was coming off a stellar 2019 season, averaging 5.2 yards on 123 carries. He had 814 scrimmage yards through eight games with the Cardinals. He was given a transition tag (worth $8.48M) to return for the 2020 season after the team traded away David Johnson to the Houston Texans.
Unfortunately he was unable to replicate the success he had the year before. Despite setting a new career high with 955 rushing yards in 2020, his yards per carry average dropped to four.
