Every NFL team has at least one player that fans wish never wore their uniform, here we look at one such player for all 32 teams in the league

With NFL players often moving teams, it’s easy to forget someone spent time with your favorite squad. And when it was a great player on a new team – such as Reggie White on the Carolina Panthers or Tony Dorsett on the Denver Broncos – it’s fun to look back and be reminded of this.

However, there are also times when a player’s time with a certain team is not looked upon with any fond memories.

That’s where we look now as we identify one player for all 32 NFL Franchises that the fan bases wish never played for their club.

Players you wish never played on your favorite NFL team

Arizona Cardinals: Sam Bradford, QB

It seemed as though everyone knew this pairing was a terrible idea except for the Arizona Cardinals. Back in 2018, the Cards signed Sam Bradford to a two-year deal that guaranteed him $15 million for the first season while he could earn up to $20 million.

The only good thing about this contract was that they had an out after one season, and they ended up needing that.

Bradford completed just 50 passes with two touchdowns and four picks before they realized he wasn’t the guy. He was so bad that they went with Josh Rosen instead, and we have all seen how Rosen’s career has taken off.

A former No. 1 overall pick, Bradford had some success with the Minnesota Vikings but the offense looked just as good when he was injured and replaced by Case Keenum. Still, Arizona thought he was a better option than he was and they paid a lot of money for very little return – and fans surely don’t remember his time fondly.
