Greg Dortch is lone player connection between Cardinals, Rams

The Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams face one another in Week 2 in Arizona for the first of two divisional matchups this season. Typically, we will see a few player connections between the Cardinals and their opponents.

This week, there is a singular connection — one Cardinals player who spent time with the Rams. The Rams have no former Cardinals on their active roster, reserves or practice squad.

The one Cardinals player to spent time with the Rams is receiver Greg Dortch. Dortch, now in his fourth season with the Cardinals, spent the final month of the 2019 on the Rams’ practice squad, so he never appeared in a game.

Rams receiver Cooper Kupp has a connection to the Cardinals a different way. His father, Craig Kupp, was a backup quarterback for the Cardinals in 1991.
