Cardinals Reportedly Workout Veteran Wide Receiver Michael Crabtree
By Karl Rasmussen
Despite initial reports claiming Michael Crabtree had signed with the Arizona Cardinals, it appears the team had simply brought him in for a workout.
The #AZCardinals worked out veteran FA WR Michael Crabtree earlier today, source said, but there are no plans to sign him at this time. Some due diligence from Arizona.

After spending the 2018 season with the Ravens, Crabtree will latch on with his fourth NFL team. He was productive last year, catching 54 passes for 607 yards and 3 touchdowns.
The 31-year-old would be a solid addition for the Cardinals, presenting another veteran option for rookie quarterback Kyler Murray to target, though it doesn't seem the team plans to make a move for him at this time.

It looks as if Crabtree will have to wait a little longer to find a new landing spot in the NFL, though who knows if the Cards will have a change of heart.
With preseason action getting underway this week, the veteran will be hopeful of signing a deal in the near future.
