47 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 47?
We are counting down to the start of the 2025 regular season for the Arizona Cardinals and are less than seven weeks away. They will open the season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 7. That is 47 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. 47?
Cardinals players to wear No. 47
Tight end Josiah Deguara, a solid special teams player who signed this offseason to compete for a spot on the roster, currently wears No. 47
Mack wore it the longest and was a solid player. Turner was a very good special teams player for many years. Slater, who wore No. 47 in the final year of his career, is actually a Hall of Famer.

30 Most Important Bears of 2025: Dennis Allen (No. 4)
The Chicago Bears are gearing up for an exciting 2025 NFL season, which features some new faces within the organization poised to get the franchise back to its winning ways. That starts with the hiring of Ben Johnson as head coach, as well as overhauling the interior offensive line, adding pieces on defense and a potenital impactful rookie draft class. Every day from now right up through training camp, we're counting down our 30 Most Important Bears for the 2025 season. We'll recap their 2024 season, look ahead to 2025 and tackle the biggest question facing them this year. Next up at No. 4 is defensive coordinator Dennis Allen, the first coach to make an appearance on the list, who is tasked with getting the most out of a veteran defense. Background Position: Defensive coordinator Age: 52 Experience: 29 years 2025 cap hit: N/A 2024 recap Allen's 2024 season was one to forget for the veteran coach. He entered his third season as the head coach for the New Orleans Saints, and the team seemed to be turning the corner after a 9-8 year in 2023 that almost resulted in a division title. New Orleans had a dependable veteran quarterback in Derek Carr and some talented playmakers with running back Alvin Kamara and wide receiver Chris Olave, but Allen couldn't bring his team to have sustained success. After a 2-7 start to the 2024 season, the Saints fired Allen and turned their attention towards the future. It was Allen's second head coaching stint after spending three and a half years with the (then) Oakland Raiders. 2025 outlook Despite his shortcomings as a head coach, Allen was one of the more highly regarded defensive minds on the market. Prior to taking over for Sean Payton as the Saints head coach, Allen was an excellent defensive coordinator. He got the most out of a number of Pro Bowl players and helped develop stars such as Trey Hendrickson and Marshon Lattimore. The Bears saw the potential to pair Allen with new head coach Ben Johnson to give him a veteran presence to work with, while also providing the defense with a proven coach who can get the most out of the unit. Big question: What will the defense look like under Allen? For the last few seasons, the Bears deployed a relatively standard 4-3 defense under former head coach Matt Eberflus with varying degrees of success. With Allen now leading the group, what exactly will be different? We know Allen prefers to work with bigger defensive linemen and could opt to move players around, such as Dayo Odeyingbo and Gervon Dexter. At linebacker, the Bears may be swapping linebackers TJ Edwards and Tremaine Edmunds to mix things up and disguise coverages, and the secondary will likely feature more man coverage with Jaylon Johnson shadowing top receivers instead of sticking at one spot. Through a few days of camp, the Bears offense is already feeling Allen's defense and what they can do. Hopefully opposing teams will have a similar experience. 30 Most Important Bears of 2025 #30 - RB Roschon Johnson #29 - QB Case Keenum #28 - K Cairo Santos #27 - DT Andrew Billings #26 - CB Tyrique Stevenson #25 - WR Luther Burden III #24 - RG Jonah Jackson #23 - LB Tremaine Edmunds #22 - DE Dayo Odeyingbo #21 - S Kevin Byard #20 - S Jaquan Brisker #19 - LB T.J.

Mike LaFleur impressed by OT D.J. Humphries early in Rams training camp
Veteran offensive lineman D.J. Humphries is already earning praise from Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur for his professionalism and presence early in training camp. D.J. Humphries has only been at the facility for a short amount of time, but the Los Angeles Rams' veteran tackle hasn't taken long to make a strong impression. The longtime Arizona Cardinal joined the Rams back in June, a move the organization made after starting left tackle Alaric Jackson was diagnosed with blood clots. Humphries, who the Cardinals drafted in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft, brings in a decade of experience to the Rams' offensive front and has a reputation for being one of the more dependable left tackles in the league. Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur knows all about Humphries from his time coaching with the San Francisco 49ers and what has stood out is the man within the helmet and jersey. 'I've unfortunately, or fortunately, gone up against him a lot over the last six, seven years,' LaFleur said. 'So I've always respected his game. But I didn't know him personally until we brought him in.' That all changed quickly when Humphries arrived in Southern California just before the team made its way out for Maui camp in Hawaii. 'We got him so late in the summer, I didn't really know what to expect,' LaFleur added. 'But just in these past few days, it's clear, he's a professional. A real pro. It's awesome to have him.' Humphries, 31, spent nine seasons in Arizona (2015-2023) and was signed late last year by the Kansas City Chiefs. Across 10 seasons, the former Florida Gator has started 100 games and was named a Pro Bowler in 2021. Now returning to the NFC West, he steps into the other side of the rivalry, bringing leadership and experience that the Rams will rely on in the potential absence of Jackson. 'Guys like him, they raise the standard,' LaFleur concluded. 'He's been through it. He gets it. That matters.' Whether he ends up starting or not, Humphries' presence is already being felt around the locker room and on the field. For a team that has played in the postseason the last two years and has those same expectations for 2025, having that kind of veteran tone setter is no small thing.
