Bailey was a core special teamer for Cincinnati with 20 ST tackles over the past two seasons.Bailey entered the NFL as a seventh-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft and has played outside linebacker for the Bengals each of the past four seasons.
As Rapoport alluded to, Bailey is a core special teams player playing over 50% of snaps on that side of the ball for each of the last three years, which includes 68% last season and 64% in 2022 according to Pro Football Reference. Arizona's outside linebacker room features the likes of B.J. Ojulari, Dennis Gardeck and Zaven Collins - who just had his fifth-year option declined by the Cardinals. Arizona also drafted Xavier Thomas out of Clemson to play at OLB.
With new kickoff rules set for the NFL, all eyes are on teams and how they'll navigate roster construction. “We’ve talked a lot about what the new kickoff is going to look like and we have thoughts on what it’s going to look like and I think in all reality, we’re probably not going to know completely until we get out there.
