Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker, despite making a trade request with the franchise, has decided to attend the practice camp next month ahead of the upcoming NFL season. The development, reported by ESPN, cited Baker's agent telling the news to NFL Network as the source.

David Mulugheta, Baker's representative, also told NFL that the safety is ready to join the Cards for the training camp but wants a deal that puts confidence in him about being a 'long-term part of the team,' reported ESPN. While Baker did attend the mandatory minicamp in June with the Cardinals, he refrained from doing any practice.

Arizona's first-year head coach Jonathan Gannon, meanwhile, said the situation concerning baker is an "organisation thing," reported ESPN.

His record also speaks volumes about his capabilities as a player. Since making his debut, Baker has 650 career tackles in 93 games. Out of these tackles, Baker has recorded 468 solo tackles and 182 assisted ones. He also has 7.5 sacks and 7 interceptions to his name as well.&nbsp;

His best season came in 2019, one year before he signed the multi-year deal with the Cardinals. In 2019, Baker recorded 147 tackles in 16 games, out of which 104 were solo ones and the remaining 43 were assisted tackles.
