TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — The agent for free agent Steve Breaston says the wide receiver won’t re-sign with the Arizona Cardinals.
Agent Eric Metz confirmed reports on Wednesday that Breaston is headed elsewhere. Several news outlets have listed Kansas City as a leading candidate for Breaston’s services.
Breaston caught 187 passes for 2,528 yards and seven touchdowns in four seasons with the Cardinals. In Arizona’s Super Bowl season of 2008, he had career highs of 77 catches for 1,006 yards. Bothered by a knee injury much of last season, Breaston caught 47 passes for 718 yards.
Breaston’s departure leaves the Cardinals without a consistent receiving threat alongside star Larry Fitzgerald.
The Arizona Republic first reported Breaston wouldn’t re-sign with the Cardinals.
