The Arizona Cardinals announced on Friday that they have parted ways veteran safety Adrian Wilson. The five-time pro bowler has spent his entire career with Arizona since being drafted by the team in 2001.
Wilson, who had been the longest-tenured player on the team, took a pay cut to stay with the Cardinals before last season, but as the final weeks winded down, both he and the franchise realized their days together were numbered.
"In every franchise, there is a select group of players whose contributions earn them iconic status and for us, Adrian Wilson will always be one of those players," Cardinals president Michael Bidwill told the Associated Press. "He joined us at a key time in our organization's evolution and helped lead us into a new era. We will always be grateful for that and look forward to the day when he's placed in the Ring of Honor at University of Phoenix Stadium alongside the other all-time great Cardinals."
