The Arizona Cardinals brought back defensive lineman Calais Campbell this month on a one-year contract. Campbell, of course, began his NFL career playing nine seasons for the Cardinals before spending the last eight elsewhere. His return almost was sooner.

Way back in 2008, the Cardinals selected Calais Campbell in the second round of the draft. Now after an eight-season absence, Campbell is back with the team that employed him for nine years to start his career.

Love for football and ability to stay healthy have helped Arizona Cardinals D-lineman Calais Campbell remain an impact player after 17 NFL seasons.
