The Arizona Cardinals have signed their entire 2021 NFL Draft class.

From the team:

The Arizona Cardinals Football Club today announced that the team has signed Purdue wide receiver Rondale Moore, the team’s second-round (49th overall) selection in the 2021 NFL Draft, to a four-year contract. In accordance with club policy, terms were not disclosed.

The Cardinals now have all seven members of their 2021 NFL Draft class under contract.

Moore (5-7, 181) left Purdue with 1,915 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns on 178 receptions to go along with 248 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 30 carries. He also returned 42 kickoffs for 813 yards and 17 punts for 118 yards during his time with the Boilermakers. Moore averaged 8.9 receptions and 95.8 receiving yards per game (20 games) during his career.

As a true freshman in 2018, he had 114 receptions for 1,258 yards and 12 touchdowns while adding 213 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries. Moore also returned 13 kickoffs for 662 yards and 12 punts for 82 yards. He won the Paul Hornung Award as the nation’s most versatile player and also became the first true freshman in Big Ten history to earn consensus All-American honors. A New Albany, IN native, Moore gradated from Purdue in 2.5 years after taking 27 credit hours during the 2020 fall semester.

Rondale Moore should give the Cardinals a dynamic playmaker with the ball in his hands and a nice new weapon for Kyler Murray.

Welcome to the desert, Rondale.
