Arians gushes about Rashard Mendenhall
Rashard Mendenhall - RB - Arizona Cardinals
March 20, 2013 - 2:00 PM ET

Cardinals coach Bruce Arians believes Rashard Mendenhall is a "legitimate big-time threat every time he touches the ball."

Arians knows Mendenhall well from their time together in Pittsburgh. "He's a big back who never has to come out of the game," Arians said. "He has a 230-pound body with 180-pound feet." Arians has lavished praise on both Mendenhall and Ryan Williams this offseason, but Mendenhall's history with his former coordinator is going to give him a big leg up in camp. Arians favors a feature-back approach, so the No. 2 runner isn't going to be in line for a lot of snaps.
