Bad news, Cardinals fans. (I know you’re all big readers of this Canada-based blog). You’ve lost two of your best young players in one day.
Anquan Boldin is off to Miami Baltimore. And now safety Antrel Rolle is headed to the Big Apple.
Rolle has reportedly signed with the Giants, where he and Kenny Phillips will team up to create quite possibly the best safety duo in the NFL.
I’m not sure safety was New York’s biggest need, but in an uncapped year, I guess it couldn’t hurt. Plus, their secondary was a disaster as a result of injuries last year, so it’s better to be safe than sorry. Essentially, this is me trying to rationalize a somewhat strange signing because I’m extremely excited about seeing Phillips and Rolle together in the same defensive backfield.
