72 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 72?

USA Today16 hours ago

With 72 days till the Cardinals open the season against the Saints, we look at the players who have worn No. 72.
We are counting down to the start of the 2025 regular season for the Arizona Cardinals and are now less than 11 weeks away. They will open the season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 7. That is 72 days away.
As we count down the remaining days of the offseason, let's look at who has worn that number uniform over the years for the Cardinals.
Who has worn No. 72?
Cardinals players to wear No. 72
No. 72 belongs to a starter on the offensive line — center Hjalte Froholdt. He has worn it since 2023. It has been a while before him since someone good wore it.
There is no question who the best No. 72 was. It was Dierdorf, a Hall of Famer. Saddler was solid when the Cardinals first came to Arizona. But no one will be better than Dierdorf was.
