The Arizona Cardinals are trying to put together a high-powered offense with rookie quarterback Kyler Murray under center, David Johnson coming out of the backfield, and Larry Fitzgerald leading the way for the receiving corps. So far, it has been a bit of a bumpy road for Kliff Kingsbury and company, and now the team is beginning to cut down the roster.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Cardinals have parted ways with former Chicago Bears' first-round pick, Kevin White.
Cardinals released former Bears first-round pick, WR Kevin White, per source. White has recovered from the hamstring injury that kept him out of action for over the past week.

During the 2015 NFL Draft, there was a discussion about who was the best wide receiver coming out of college that year. Current Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper and the West Virginia alum were among the top wideouts. Unfortunately for White, injuries have been a persistent problem as he's never been able to stay healthy enough to prove his worth to the Bears or in his short stint with the Cardinals.
White has played a total of 14 games in his NFL career and didn't make an impression in those games. He has yet to score a touchdown on the NFL level and has only 25 catches to his credit for 285 yards.
White hasn't been able to establish himself as a reliable option at wide receiver, and as a result, he'll be looking for a new team once again as the 2019 NFL season gets underway.
As for Arizona, it'll be interesting to see how this team comes together and whether they'll be able to put a competitive roster on the field come Week 1.
