Collier (biceps) is healthy once again, Ariel Reed of Texoma's reports. Collier is now fully recovered from a biceps injury that limited him to just one regular-season game last season. Now healthy, the 28-year-old will compete for a roster spot as a reserve defender.
Collier (biceps) is expected to be "pretty much full tilt" when the Cardinals begin their offseason programs, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports. Collier only appeared in one game for Arizona last season before suffering the injury and spent the rest of the season sidelined. He re-signed with the team earlier in March, and with him nearing full health, he should have a second chance to impress in 2024.
Arizona is re-signing Collier to a one-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Collier only appeared in one game with the Cardinals last year before suffering a season-ending biceps injury, but he impressed the team enough during last offseason's training camp that the he'll get another chance in the desert. There's not yet any reason to suspect that the 2019 first-round pick will be less than a full participant when offseason workouts kick off.
