Beanie Wells: My days are numbered in AZ
Beanie Wells - RB - Arizona Cardinals
Dec. 24, 2012 - 2:45 PM ET

After Sunday's Week 16 benching, Beanie Wells told reporters Monday that his "days are numbered" in Arizona.

Wells says he hopes to play in Week 17 in order to "audition for 31 other teams." Although Wells scored some late-season goal-line touchdowns, he was thoroughly ineffective this year with a 2.66 YPC average on 234 carries. His kind is also a dying breed in the NFL, as a two-down back lacking pass-game value. Wells probably wouldn't bring more than a late-round pick via trade.
