Cardinals have met with Minnesota CB prospect Chris Williamson

The Arizona Cardinals continue to prepare for the 2020 NFL Draft, even though they must only have virtual contact with draft prospects leading up to the draft. They have had video visits with many players.

Another such player they have met with electronically is Minnesota cornerback Chris Williamson.

According to Draft Wire’s Justin Melo, the Cardinals are one of four teams with whom Williamson has had meetings via FaceTime.

Williamson is a late Day 3 prospect or could be an undrafted rookie target after the draft.

He is nearly six feet tall and weighs 199 pounds. He is fast. He played two seasons for the Gophers after transferring from Florida and had one interception and seven pass breakups in two seasons. He did not attend the combine and also did not have a pro day because of the coronavirus pandemic, but he played very well in the East-West Shrine game.

He had hamstring issues when with Florida and those problems seem to have gone away now.

The Cardinals have one pick each in the sixth and seventh rounds of the draft. He could be a target in those rounds and might be one of the undrafted rookie we hear them sign after the draft.
