Arizona Cardinals president Michael Bidwill mentioned that they’ll consider restructuring Kevin Kolb‘s contract at some point during the offseason.
“Kevin’s contract is probably something we’re going to need to address,” said Bidwill, via ArizonaSports.com. “It’s a big number and given the productivity and the questions about durability and everything, that’s something that I think the reality is we need to sit down and discuss.“
Kolb, 28, is set to make a $9 million base salary that includes a $2 million roster bonus that will be due on March 15.

Bidwill added that the team’s new coaching staff will meet to discuss potential free agent targets this week.
