Before the release of the new schedule, a Pro Football Focus article highlighted Garrett Williams as the most underrated player for the Arizona Cardinals. The cornerback received an impressive 83.7 coverage grade in 2024, ranking him second among slot cornerbacks in the NFL and seventh-best in allowing touchdowns from that position.
The selection of Williams reflects a national perspective on the Cardinals, as he may not be widely recognized outside Arizona or by Cardinals fans. The article suggests that Williams is indeed underrated but opens up a discussion about whether he is the most underrated player on the team.
Other players considered for this title include Trey McBride, who might not have been nationally recognized before his new contract, Mack Wilson Sr., Hjalte Froholdt, and Paris Johnson Jr. While none are suggested to surpass Williams for this specific recognition, it sparks an engaging debate during the offseason.
