TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -New Arizona Cardinals safety Kerry Rhodes says he had expected to be back with the New York Jets next season but that he and the team that eventually traded him weren’t meshing well in the end.
Rhodes says the Cardinals have given him a chance at a new beginning and an opportunity to provide leadership.
The Cardinals acquired Rhodes from the Jets for a fourth-round pick in this year’s draft and a seventh-rounder in 2011.
Rhodes is expected to move into the starting spot opposite All-Pro Adrian Wilson that was vacated when Antrel Rolle signed as a free agent with the New York Giants last week.
Rhodes struggled with the Jets last year and even lost his starting job.
