Free agent cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. has a “medical concern” that is keeping him from being signed according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.
The Cardinals reportedly visited with Samuel Jr. in March but did not come to terms on an agreement. Garafolo notes that last year’s shoulder/neck diagnosis is keeping him from being signed. The former second-round pick has had a “paused free agency” and, while Samuel Jr. has played well for the Chargers when healthy, it doesn’t sound like many NFL teams believe he is currently healthy after he missed the majority of 2024 with these issues.
