Rookie RB Jeremiyah Love Spotted Practicing A New Position With Arizona Cardinals
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

After a successful tenure with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Jeremiyah Love entered the NFL widely considered the best prospect of his class.
The running back turned a lot of heads under Marcus Freeman, posting 433 carries for 2,882 yards and 36 yards in three years. The Arizona Cardinals picked him with the No. 3 pick in the 2026 NFL draft, adding a solid piece to what could be a competitive roster in the future.
As great as he is at rushing the ball, it seems that he is open to trying out new positions. On Monday, Love tested a different one.

The first day of OTAs brought a surprise to Cardinals fans. While Love should make an impact on the backfield, Mike LaFleur might have more duties for him.
The 20-year-old was seen working on kickoff returns on Monday.

He is not new to that. However, he only had three career kickoff returns at Notre Dame. This could be a terrific option for the Cardinals, but time will tell if they are serious about it or if it’s a one-time thing.
