Chris Streveler's next chapter appears to be with the Arizona Cardinals.
According to TSN's Farhan Lalji, Streveler is expected to sign a futures deal with the Cardinals after being released by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers earlier on Monday to pursue NFL opportunities.
Lalji adds he's hearing that Streveler will receive a portion of his contract - in the $100,000 range - guaranteed from the Cardinals, meaning the team will give him a long look over the off-season and training camp.
Streveler spent the past two seasons in Winnipeg and established himself as one of the best rushing quarterbacks in the league last year. The Bombers QB rushed for 726 yards to go along with 12 touchdowns in 17 games while also throwing eight touchdowns.
He also rushed for 39 yards and a touchdown in a Grey Cup victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats to give Winnipeg their first title in 29 years.
The 25-year-old is a native of Crystal Lake, Ill., and played his college ball at the University of South Dakota.
