Traded to New England
The Cardinals traded Kiner to the Patriots on Saturday in exchange for a 2028 seventh-round pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Given that the Patriots exchanged draft capital for him, Kiner could now slot in as the No. 3 running back behind starters Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson (ankle). Henderson is expected to be available for the Patriots' Week 1 matchup with the Seahawks, but if he does happen to miss time Kiner could be the next man up. The 24-year-old played in four career games for the Cardinals, logging 12 rush attempts for 58 yards.
