The Arizona Cardinals entered training camp with Justin Bethel and Brandon Williams battling for the No. 2 cornerback job, but it appears the team may not be done adding contenders for the role.
Former Chargers and Chiefs CB Brandon Flowers is visiting Arizona on Wednesday, per league source. Also been talking with the Patriots.

A veteran of nine NFL seasons with the first six coming in Kansas City, Flowers has 21 career interceptions. The 5-foot-9, 187-pound Virginia Tech product was a Pro Bowl selection in 2013.
Flowers was released by the Chargers following a 2016 season in which he appeared in just six games before a concussion sent him to IR in December.
Should the Cardinals sign Flowers, he would join a growing list of veterans GM Steve Keim has added late in the offseason or after training camp began.

Hahaha oh snap I am glad you remembered. I have been on the Reddick bandwagon for awhile now. I think this class will have a good impact on this 2017 season. I can see Logan improving our ST's on returns, seeing BB bouncing around back in the defensive backfield, Johnson eventually starting if Boehm doesn't do it right, & Reddick causing havoc from day 1.
Would be a solid vet to add to the CB2 mix
The best player that wins the competition will start. Bethel and Williams aren't owed anything and they aren't favorites of BA yet. Only people like Drew Butler would continue to start regardless of being the best available option because he had blackmail or something on the coaching staff.
