The Cardinals have traded for Sam Gordon and signed the RB to a multi-year contract. Sam is expected to practice this week and be the new starter in Atlanta.
Coach Whiz "Sam will inspire our line to block better. Sam won't take any excuses for getting laid out like our qb's do on a regular basis".
Ron Graves, "Sam is someone we have wanted to bring in for a long time. We just decided now was the time we needed the help and the contract fit."
OC Mike Miller, "A running back with Sam's skills will definitely help us achieve more balance and make our attack more potent".
Sam is an elusive back much like LSH but can break tackles like Beanie. Here is a You Tube compilation of Sam's skills. Note the 2:25 mark for stiff arms and tackle breaking.
