Cardinals trade RB Corey Kiner to Patriots for a 2028 seventh-round pick
The Patriots have added some depth at running back through a trade with the Cardinals.
The New England Patriots have bolstered their running back corps by acquiring Corey Kiner from the Arizona Cardinals, according to Adam Schefter. In exchange for Kiner, the Patriots have granted the Cardinals a 2028 seventh-round draft pick. The move comes after the Cardinals had intended to waive Kiner, and the Patriots, holding the 31st position in the waiver order, sought to secure his services ahead of other teams.
Kiner, who was signed as an undrafted rookie last year, had a promising debut, amassing 58 rushing yards from 12 carries, along with 15 receiving yards on two catches and a 22-yard kickoff return. The Cardinals, bolstered by the addition of first-round pick Jeremiyah Love and free agent Tyler Allgeier to their backfield, have decided they no longer need Kiner on their roster.
