Although the Cardinals came up short against the Buccaneers on Christmas night, WR Greg Dortch proved himself to be a vital part of Arizona’s’ offense.

Dortch finished with a career-high 10 receptions for 98 yards, leading all receivers by a large margin. It was a fantastic comeback game after two weeks with no receptions.

Now, this season, when Dortch plays in over 60% of the offensive snaps, the 24-year-old is averaging nearly 80 yards per game. The only problem is that the Cardinals have failed to give him consistent reps, as he has only played in over 60% of offensive snaps in five games this season.

Greg Dortch will be a free agent at the end of this season, as he is currently on a one-year, $780,000 contract.

With two weeks remaining to prove his worth, it would be an extremely smart move by the Cardinals to keep him on their roster.
