Report: Cardinals release former Bombers QB Streveler

The Arizona Cardinals have cut former CFL quarterback Chris Streveler, according to Arizona Sports 98.7 FM's John Gambadoro. 

I expect Steveler will see if there’s another NFL team he can catch on with first. But I’m sure if he was interested, the #Bombera would welcome him back with open arms. Would probably give them an instant upgrade at #2. Get some playoff $$ & maybe a ring in 3 weeks! @CFLonTSN https://t.co/iCsYCPWFoo

This comes after the Cardinals added QB Trace McSorley off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad n Monday, giving the team multiple options under centre behind Kyler Murray.

The notion of @cstrevy coming back to the @CFL to join the @Wpg_BlueBombers on their Grey Cup run is delicious. But I’m led to believe there is no chance it will happen. #CFL #Bombers

However, TSN Football Insider Dave Naylor tweets there is "no chance" of a reunion between the Bombers and Streveler this season.

The 26-year-old Streveler appeared in seven games with the Cardinals over two seasons, completing 17 of 25 passes with one touchdown and one interception.

The University of South Dakota product spent two seasons with the Blue Bombers, helping them to a Grey Cup in 2019 before signing with the Cardinals in 2020. Streveler has rushed for 22 touchdowns and thrown for 19 more in 35 CFL regular season games.
