The Arizona Cardinals and James Conner have agreed to a reworked contract to keep the running back with the team next season, NFL Network reported Sunday.
Conner was scheduled to have a $9.8 million cap hit this season. The terms of his new contract were not reported.
Conner, who will turn 31 in May, missed all but three games last season after sustaining a season-ending ankle injury. Connor was coming off of back-to-back 1,000 yard seasons with Arizona in 2023-24.
A two-time Pro Bowler, Conner has been with the Cardinals since 2021 and has played in 60 games in Arizona after four seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Across 110 career games (84 starts), the third-round pick from the 2017 NFL Draft has 6,065 rushing yards and 60 touchdowns with 2,255 receiving yards and 12 receiving touchdowns
The Cardinals also reworked the contract of cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting, who missed all of last season with a knee injury. Murphy-Bunting was projected to have a $9.2 million cap hit next season.
Murphy-Bunting, 28, has played in 82 career games (65 starts) for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2019-22), Tennessee Titans (2023) and Cardinals (2024). He has 297 tackles, 34 pass breakups and 11 interceptions in his career.
