For the Arizona Cardinals, the 2026 offseason has been an intersting one.

They have added a lot in terms of players to the roster, but the questions becomes which additions will have big impact?

They added an interesting fit in Devin Duvernay, the former Pro Bowl and All Pro return man who in 2021 and 2022 was putting up big numbers in the punt return game.

Aside from being an option at receiver, Duvernay is a key weapon for his field-position impact as a returner. pic.twitter.com/U8dfTYZwM1

The interesting thing is… the last two seasons, Greg Dortch was actually better or equal as a return man the last two seasons.

2024: Duveranay – 8.8 y/ret punt, 25.1 y/ret kick
2024: Dortch – 9.6 y/ret punt, 26.6 y/ret kick

2025: Duveranay – 11.0 y/ret punt, 26.7 y/ret kick
2025: Dortch – 11.6 y/ret punt, 26.2 y/ret kick

So, what are your thoughts on bringing in Duvernay? It is not to say that he won’t offer anything as a receiver, but he has not had more than 79 yards total in his last three seasons.

How do you feel about the addition of Duvernay?
