Cardinals strong safety Adrian Wilson, who has played in more games as an Arizona Cardinal than any other player, sees his time with the franchise ending in three weeks, Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic reports.
Wilsons role has diminished in recent weeks, and he doubts he will be with the team beyond this year.
It hurts, Wilson said. It hurts. They can give you 1,000 reasons why that is, but I know I can still play football. Its tough right now.
Wilson obviously was downcast after the 58-0 loss to Seahawks, a game in which he hardly played in the second half.
This is the lowest of the low, to be quite honest with you, Wilson said. Something like this will make you not want to play anymore.
His declining playing time definitely makes me ponder about my future, he said. I love the guys that I play with and I love this organization. Its tough to take right now.
Wilson, in his 12th season, said he can still be a leader even though hes playing less.
I think guys still look up to me and look up to the way that I work, he said. Im not a hard guy to read. I wear my emotions on my sleeves, and I try my best to just go out and practice hard.
We have three more games left, and Im going to try my best, to play those three games hard and see what happens after that.. Source: The Redzone Attached Thumbnails

Mind-blowingly awful week for Cardinals
TEMPE, Ariz. There are weeks to remember, weeks to forget and weeks when you consider a full frontal lobotomy.
Yeah. The latter was the Cardinals week. Lets review while stretching the definition of week in a Beatles, eight-days-a-week kind of way.
