The Arizona Cardinals and Zaven Collins are both winners after his fifth-year option declines.
ARIZONA -- The Arizona Cardinals still have some decisions to make as the 2024 offseason now progresses into camps, though the future of OLB Zaven Collins has already been determined.
Arizona has now declined the fifth-year option on five of the last six first-round selections - the lone exception being Kyler Murray. There was some hope Collins would continue improvement in the interior, though Arizona had other ideas. The Cardinals had hoped Collins' blend of size, speed and IQ could benefit a depleted edge group.Pro Football Reference
The decision doesn't mean the end of the road for either side - but if it is - it could be seen as a win-win for both. This could also benefit the player in a handful of ways. By leaving next offseason, he could opt to return to his natural spot at middle linebacker on a new squad - or maybe Collins truly finds his footing as an edge and can secure a long-term contract to the highest-bidder.
