The Arizona Cardinals have had a turbulent offseason. On the player front, the Cardinals went on to release one of their star players, DeAndre Hopkins. With the kind of talent, he brought to the table, it was almost surprising the team was willing to let such a great player go. However, this is not all the turbulence they’re facing. An extremely important former executive of the Cardinals has been through an incident that has disrupted his familial life.

Sadly, the executive in question has had a marital disagreement that went on to become violent. Interestingly, even though he was a former executive the Cardinals still went on to release a statement given his position within the organization.

They ask that their family’s privacy be respected as they deal with this challenging personal situation.”
