34 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 34?
We are counting down to the start of the 2025 regular season for the Arizona Cardinals, and that is less than five weeks away. They will open the season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 7. That is 34 days away.
As we count down the remaining days of the offseason, let's look at who has worn that number uniform over the years for the Cardinals.
Who has worn No. 34?
Cardinals players to wear No. 34
Safety Jalen Thompson has quietly been wearing No. 34 since he came into the league in 2019. We will see how much longer he stays on the team. It is the final year of his contract.
Koman was a two-time Pro Bowl linebacker in the 60s. He and Thompson have been the best players with that number, as well as Harder a gazillion years ago.

Cardinals aiming high: Seek third straight winning season
For the first time since 1971-72, Lamar posted back-to-back winning football seasons and now is thinking even bigger. The Cardinals, under Pete Rossomando, look to become one of the Southland's true contenders this year after posting 13 victories in the coach's first two seasons in Beaumont, Texas. A third consecutive winning season hasn't happened since Lyndon Johnson was president in 1967, so doing that would be historic for Lamar. All this after the Cardinals returned to the Southland Conference in 2022 after a one-year stay in the Western Athletic Conference. 'It helps to be in the Southland Conference,' Rossomando said. 'It is the conference we should be in. There is a feeling of home. I think that Lamar lost its way for a year or two. 'Our next thing is to make the playoffs and compete at the national level.' In an ever-changing landscape yearly, the Cardinals thought they had not one but two quarterbacks who played last year. Senior Robert Coleman's return is a surprise as he will be the starter. Coleman has 22 career starts, connecting on 288 of his 511 pass attempts for 3,703 yards and 31 touchdowns. He has also run for 433 yards and seven scores. Another senior, Jakolby Longino, shared time with Coleman last year. The two were 163 of 310 for 2,119 yards and 20 TDs. Longino entered the NCAA transfer portal just before fall camp. Coleman was kicked out of the season finale against McNeese State and Longino led the late comeback. 'We didn't know we were going to get Robert back,' Rossomando said. 'He didn't go through spring with us. Robert has had a great summer; he does everything we need a quarterback to do in our offense.' Replacing eight starters on the defense will be the big thing for the Cardinals, who were 7-4, 4-3 in the SLC last season, as they continue to try to move up the ladder and get to the next level. They were predicted in the conference's preseason poll to finish fourth, receiving one first-place vote. 'We just go day by day, we don't worry about what has happened in the past or will in the future,' Rossomando said. 'It has all been about our process. 'We have a plan, and we just keep moving forward.' The Cardinals will have to replace Khalan Griffin, last season's top rusher in the Southland, with 105.3 yards a game. Though with four offensive line starters back the hard part is done. The schedule is set up perfectly for Lamar with one Football Bowl Subdivision game at North Texas and then two at home against South Dakota and Central Arkansas, a onetime SLC member. Winning those games could set the stage for a playoff run.

Seahawks' Geno Smith flips off fans for sign in Seattle return
Quarterback Geno Smith turned his career around with the Seattle Seahawks in 2022. The franchised traded away Super Bowl-winning passer Russell Wilson and Smith filled his shoes well, making his first Pro Bowl and winning Comeback Player of the Year in his first year with Seattle. The Seahawks traded Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders this offseason. Smith took the field for an NFL game as a Raider for the first time at his former home: Lumen Field in Seattle. Fans showed Smith appreciation prior to the game. When he exited the tunnel for the game later on, it was a different story. One fan held a sign that read "BIGGER BUST - GENO OR JAMARCUS RUSSELL." Smith had a not-safe-for-work response and gestured with both of his middle fingers at the fan. (Editor's note: The following photo contains a crude gesture.) That's a bit of a curious comparison. Besides both being first-round picks and playing for the Raiders, Smith and Russell have little in common. Smith's entering his 12th year in the league and has made two Pro Bowls. Russell played three years in the NFL and went 7-18 as a starter. Smith completed 1 of 3 passes for 15 yards in limited action Thursday night in the 23-23 tie between the Raiders and Seahawks. This is the only time these two teams will play during the preseason or regular season. Las Vegas is back in action on Aug. 16 against the San Francisco 49ers for the lone home game of the preseason. Seattle faces off against Kansas City on on Aug. 15 at home again.
