Cardinals’ Simi Fehoko keeps lighting it up this preseason

Maybe Michael Wilson was onto something when he said Cardinals WR Simi Fehoko might be one of the greatest preseason wide receivers.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Simi Fehoko just might be the best preseason wideout of our generation.

The wide receiver once again found the end zone in Arizona’s preseason finale against the Green Bay Packers on Friday.

Fehoko and quarterback Gardner Minshew II kicked off the second quarter with a bang, connecting on a 41-yard touchdown strike to give the Cardinals an early lead.

The wide receiver has been a consistent threat this preseason, recording an explosive and/or touchdown in each of Arizona’s four exhibition games.

“He might be one of the greatest preseason receivers of all time at this point, right?” wide receiver Michael Wilson said earlier in the month. “Every time his number’s called, he seems to always come through. It’s a really fun room to be a part of.”

Fehoko is squarely on the bubble to make the initial 53-man roster. His biggest competition in the room is Jalen Brooks, who has been the most consistent Cardinals wide receiver this preseason.

Brooks continued that trend on Friday, catching all four of his first half targets for 47 yards.

Cardinals RB Evan Hull adds to the explosives

Fehoko wasn’t the only Arizona player to house an explosive during the first half of Friday’s action.

Trying to make his case for the 53-man roster, running back Evan Hull was handed the rock and was off to the races with a 47-yard touchdown run.

Hull made sure to take it all in once he found paydirt.

The running back likely isn’t in the equation to crack Arizona’s 53-man roster but could have caught another team’s eye with Friday’s highlight. The Cardinals’ practice squad could be another option.

The Cardinals trail the Packers, 24-20, at halftime.
