Cardinals' Bradley making his case at ILB - CBS 5 - KPHO

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) -- Stewart Bradley already needed to prove a lot. The Arizona Cardinals linebacker now has a larger stage to show the strides he's made.

Entering his second season with Arizona, Bradley needs to remove the stigma of underachiever after a disappointing first year after signing as a free agent.

Bradley received first-team repetitions on the inside next to Daryl Washington each of the past two days during Arizona's brief training camp sojourn at Missouri Western State University.

That came as a result of veteran Paris Lenon's ankle injury suffered Sunday in the Cardinals' preseason opener.

Bradley didn't want to see anyone injured but must take advantage of his opportunity.

He had a solid outing for Arizona in a 17-10 loss to New Orleans in the Hall of Fame Game on Sunday.
