Kendrick Bourne must step up as Cardinals’ WR room has become a weakness

Reese Kunz of Raising Zona argues that the Arizona Cardinals urgently need wide receiver Kendrick Bourne to increase his production as the team's secondary receiver. With Marvin Harrison Jr. unavailable and Jalen Brooks placed on injured reserve with a wrist injury, the writer views the Cardinals' wide receiver group as a primary weakness in their struggling offense.

Bourne has recorded 25 receptions for 234 yards and zero touchdowns through seven games after signing a two-year contract. Kunz believes improved output from Bourne would relieve defensive pressure on tight end Trey McBride, revitalize Michael Wilson, and better support quarterback Jacoby Brissett and rookie running back Jeremiyah Love.
