Cardinals, James Conner agree to $19 million contract extension

The Arizona Cardinals are agreeing to a $19 million contract extension with running back James Conner, per ESPN. Conner was previously scheduled to be a free agent after the 2024 season.

Conner is having a great year, and so is Arizona. The Cardinals are 6-5 and fighting for a chance to win the NFC West division this campaign.

The rusher’s contract extension is for two years. Conner has 705 rushing yards this season, and five touchdowns. In the team’s last game against the Seattle Seahawks, Conner finished with just eight yards on the ground.
