Arizona Cardinals Secure $15M Contract Extension for Baron Browning

As the NFL's free agency period begins, the Arizona Cardinals are positioning themselves to be significant players with $74.4 million in cap space. The team has secured outside linebacker Baron Browning with a two-year contract worth $15 million, potentially rising to $19 million, to avoid losing him in free agency. Browning, who was acquired mid-season from the Broncos, is seen as a key defensive addition, despite a modest performance last season. This proactive signing reflects the Cardinals' strategy to strengthen their defense while preparing for upcoming free agency and the draft. With Browning locked in, Arizona is expected to pursue additional talent to bolster their roster further. The Cardinals' general manager emphasizes the importance of making smart decisions during this critical off-season period.
