When the 2020 Cardinals, after a brisk 2-0 start, went into a two game tailspin losing to the Lions at home and the Panthers on the road, GM Steve Keim said on Doug and Wolf:
“Our stars need to start playing like stars.”
If you go and look at the Cardinals’ highest paid players in 2020, the majority of them did not play like stars. Good for Steve Keim for telling it like it was.
Clearly, this off-season Steve Keim has been on a mission to sign veteran leaders, ones whom he believes will act like stars, lead like stars and play like stars.
