The Seattle Seahawks and Green Bay Packers face each other in the final divisional playoff game of the weekend. On the rosters of both teams, there are a few former Arizona Cardinals players.
Who used to play for Arizona?
Packers OL Jared Veldheer
Veldheer played for the Cardinals from 2014-2017 before being traded to the Denver Broncos. He played one year for the Broncos and then signed this past offseason with the New England Patriots. He announced his retirement in May and then came out of retirement in November, signing with the Packers. He played two games before the end of the season.
Packers CB Tramon Williams
Williams spent one season with the Cardinals in 2017 and played very well. It was good enough for him to get a new contract from the Packers, form whom he had played the first eight years of his career. Now 36 years old, he had two interceptions this season.
Seahawks WR Jaron Brown
Brown was with the Cardinals five years after signing as an undrafted rookie out of Clemson. He is in his second season with the Seahawks. He had 16 catches this year for 220 yards and two touchdowns.
Seahawks G Mike Iupati
Iupati joined the Seahawks this season after his contract voided after 2018. He played four seasons for the Cardinals, missing 21 games over the last two years. He played in all 16 games this year for the Seahawks but has a neck injury that could keep him out of the game on Sunday.
