The Arizona Cardinals announced Thursday that they have re-signed former UTEP football offensive lineman Will Hernandez to a one-year contract. Last season, Hernandez started the first five games at right guard before he suffered a season-ending ACL tear in the Cardinals’ Week 5 game against the San Francisco 49ers.

The return of veteran offensive lineman Will Hernandez goes far in solidifying the Arizona Cardinals offensive line heading into 2025.
