The Cardinals coaching staff is doing all it can to keep Virgil on the final roster. Signed to a four-year, $4.94 million contract ($556,500 guaranteed). Has impressed in training camp, practices, and both preseason games. Made a notable 19-yard catch against the Raiders on third-and-11 with an over-the-shoulder grab and two feet dragged in bounds. Good height (6'-3"), high school basketball standout, runs a 4.57, 36" vertical, benched 225 pounds 30 times.

In Hall of Fame Game: 6 targets, 5 receptions for 66 yards (13.2 yards-per-catch average).PositiveBreakoutAug 16, 2026
