Every week we highlight how the Cougs are faring in the NFL, but recently we could just call this the Deone Bucannon update. Bucannon’s season got off to a slow start due to an ankle injury, but that is an afterthought at this point. The Cardinals already picked up Bucannon’s 2018 option and it’s a good thing, because soon enough he is going to get paid.
Bucannon continues to have a great season. He led the Cardinals in tackles on Sunday with 13. That included one tackle for loss. He also defended a pass and forced a fumble.
