With Kirk Cousins signing with Minnesota, the departures of both Keenum and Bradford were predictable.
Bradford missed most of the 2017 season with a knee injury. In 2016, he passed for 3,877 yards with 20 touchdowns, five interceptions, a 99.3 passer rating, and completed a then NFL record 71.6 percent of his passes.
Arizona figures to be a nice landing spot for Bradford. With a strong running game led by David Johnson and a fantastic veteran receiver in Larry Fitzgerald, Bradford will have decent weapons to work with.
