Cardinals Cover 2

Ep. 992 - Happy April Fool’s Day, Bird Gang. That said, neither Craig Grialou nor Dani Sureck are playing the fool on Wednesday’s show. Instead, Craig and Dani continue to react to what Mike LaFleur had to say during his Q&A with reporters at the Annual League Meeting this week; LaFleur likes the experience both Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew bring to the quarterback room, believes Teryl Austin will be “a great asset” for him, Nick Rallis, and the defense overall plus LaFleur is looking forward to having players back in the building next week. Also, Craig and Dani update Paris Johnson Jr.’s rehab, another round of uniform number changes, and because it is April 1st, begin to promote the 2026 Draft Party at State Farm Stadium.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 991 - It’s the one topic that’s dominated much of the offseason. Quarterback. Who’s in the room? Who might be in the room? And, yes, who no longer is in the room? Those questions were asked. Those questions were answered by head coach Mike LaFleur over a 30-minute period on Monday morning at the Arizona Biltmore, the site of this year’s Annual League Meeting. Both Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman listened in to what LaFleur had to say about Jacoby Brissett, Gardner Minshew as well as Kyler Murray. Plus, the guys react to what LaFleur had to say about the offense, the offensive line, his coaching staff, Kendrick Bourne, Walter Nolen’s recovery, and the likelihood of joint practices with the Green Bay Packers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 990 – At first glance, he reminds you of Dennis Gardeck, maybe even Pat Tillman (or Kurt Cobain, according to Paul Calvisi.) Watch him play, and yeah, the Gardeck similarities continue. Hear him speak, and you feel like you’re talking to Budda Baker in terms of how he describes his style of play. In other words, new safety Andrew Wingard, before even playing a down of football in a Cardinals uniform, is trending towards being a fan favorite. Recently, Wingard sat down with Calvisi and Craig Grialou to discuss why he chose Arizona after seven seasons in Jacksonville, why going undrafted might’ve been the best thing to happen to him, and why he plays like he plays.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 989 - Whether on the field or off the field, and especially off the field, Kendrick Bourne can be counted on to bring one thing: He will bring the energy. Tenfold. “I was born this way” - no pun intended - he recently told Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi. Bourne is among the new additions to the wide receiver room. He speaks with Craig and Paul about the energy he exudes, why relationships are important, his plan to be a mentor to the likes of Michael Wilson and Marvin Harrison Jr., the special connection he has with head coach Mike LaFleur, and how being an undrafted free agent helped shape him into the player who is going into his 10th season in the league.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 988 - Among the many moves made during free agency almost half of the additions have come along the line of scrimmage, which shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone based on last season’s results. The two marquee names signed were Isaac Seumalo and Roy Lopez. Both recently sat down with Craig Grialou and Paul Calvisi. For Seumalo, it was a chance to get back on the west coast, fill a need at left guard, team with Paris Johnson Jr., and help build a winner in Arizona. Meanwhile, for Lopez, who is about to become a first-time father, it was a chance to return home, fill a much-needed role inside, and reunite with several teammates as well as defensive coordinator Nick Rallis. Enjoy the conversations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
