The 2024 NFL regular season is fast approaching, and the Arizona Cardinals are gearing up for their first game of the season. On September 1st, they will travel to Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York to take on the Buffalo Bills. In just 92 days, the Cardinals will kick off their new campaign with high hopes and a renewed sense of purpose.
Defensive lineman Bilal Nichols has recently joined the team as a free agent and will wear the No. 92 jersey this season. The team expects him to be a key player on their defense and make a significant impact on the field. Nichols follows in the footsteps of players like Kevin Strong, Antwaun Woods, and Zach Kerr who have all worn No. 92 for the Cardinals in the past but did not have a considerable impact on the team. However, Frostee Rucker was a notable player who wore the number from 2015-2017. He was an essential player on both offense and defense, providing leadership in the locker room and playing 73 games over five seasons with the team.
Rucker recorded an impressive 106 tackles, 10.5 sacks, 25 tackles for loss, 42 quarterback hits, four forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery during his time with the Cardinals. His successful 12-year NFL career left a lasting impact on the team, and he remains an important figure in Arizona Cardinals history.
