The (roster) direction of will be outlandish but I am having a inquire of forward to it.”

“No longer in shape, I wager,” Kingsbury said. “That’s roughly where we’ll leave it.”
Kingsbury added the Cards will work with Nkemdiche when he comes off PUP, though as he goes into the closing 365 days of his contract, Nkemdiche figures to accept as true with work to make for a roster area.
Kingsbury did enlighten linebacker Brooks Reed (hip) will be coming off PUP soon.
