TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — The Arizona Cardinals demoted starting middle linebacker Jordan Hicks during the offseason, believing they needed to get younger and cheaper. Turns out that was a mistake.

The 29-year-old is having perhaps his best season and he was the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for his stellar performance against the Bears. Now the Cardinals can clinch a playoff berth for the first time since 2015 if they beat the Rams on Monday night.
