Cardinals' Trey McBride Weighs in on NFL Top 100 Landing Spot

The Arizona Cardinals tight end, Trey McBride, saw a significant rise in the NFL Top 100 rankings for the upcoming season, now sitting at No. 13 overall. This was revealed during a media session at training camp. The Pro Bowl tight end expressed his excitement over the higher placement, calling it "very cool" to receive such a prestigious ranking. Last season, McBride was ranked 65th overall, marking a considerable jump.

McBride had known about his new rank for about three months, and he shared his feelings with reporters, stating, "To be the 13th wow, some of those names in front of me, some of those names behind me, there s some really good players." He emphasized that his position on the list is a "dream come true" and a testament to the hard work he put into his stellar campaign for the Cardinals last season.

McBride, who put up career-high numbers with 126 receptions, 1,239 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns last season, earned a second consecutive Pro Bowl appearance. With Rob Gronkowski's retirement and Travis Kelce nearing the end of his career, the Cardinals have an opportunity to shine brighter as McBride continues his career. McBride will play his first season without quarterback Kyler Murray, who moved to the Minnesota Vikings, and instead, veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett will lead the offense for Arizona.

The addition of rookie running back Jeremiyah Love to the Cardinals' roster further strengthens their offense. It remains to be seen if McBride will maintain his impressive stats or make even greater strides in the upcoming season.
