The Arizona Cardinals have officially signed fourth-round draft pick Kaleb Proctor to a four-year rookie contract, according to the team via @AZCardinals. The announcement, made on Monday, confirms that the team is nearing the completion of its contract negotiations for the entire 2026 rookie class.
With Proctor now officially under contract, the Arizona Cardinals have successfully secured nearly all of their newest players. The signing of the fourth-round selection marks a key milestone in the team's offseason preparations as they look toward the start of the new campaign. The four-year agreement follows the standard rookie wage scale protocols for players selected in his round.
Following the signing of Kaleb Proctor, third-round pick and quarterback Carson Beck remains the only unsigned rookie on the Arizona Cardinals roster. Beck is the final member of the team's draft class yet to finalize his rookie deal. The front office will now turn its full attention toward reaching an agreement with the quarterback to ensure the entire draft class is signed and ready for the upcoming season.
The Arizona Cardinals have been diligent in finalizing these rookie contracts throughout the early summer months. By securing Proctor, the team has minimized the number of outstanding negotiations remaining on their schedule. This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
