MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — The Miami Dolphins have traded Kenyan Drake to the Arizona Cardinals.
Arizona acquired Drake for a conditional sixth-round pick in 2020 on Monday, giving the Cardinals (3-4-1) a healthy backfield option heading into Thursday’s game against the undefeated San Francisco 49ers (7-0).
It remains to be seen how quickly Drake can adjust to the new offense with just a few practice days. The Cardinals are optimistic.
“From what I’ve heard, he’s a smart player and he’s eager to learn,” Arizona coach Kliff Kingsbury said. “We’ll give him enough to where he can execute at a high level.
