The Arizona Cardinals hosted Arizona Wildcats cornerback Treydan Stukes for a pre-NFL Draft visit, the prospect told SI.com’s Justin Melo.
Stukes added he’s visited the Tennessee Titans and was planning to meet with more NFL teams as the draft closes in.
While he played primarily cornerback at Arizona, he is also being viewed as a safety at the next level thanks to his versatility.
The 6-foot-1, 190-pound defensive back is coming off his sixth season with the Wildcats where he recorded 52 tackles, one sack, a career-high four interceptions and six passes defensed in 10 games played.
Stukes then turned it on at the NFL Draft Combine, highlighted by a 4.33-second 40-yard dash and 1.50-second 10-yard split. Those marks were good enough for third and second, respectively, among safety prospects.

While the Cardinals have plenty of depth at cornerback, they could find a need for Stukes at safety.
Despite the Cardinals watching seven-year starter Jalen Thompson depart for the Dallas Cowboys this offseason, Arizona did replenish the room with the free-agent signing of Andrew Wingard.
Budda Baker is locked in as a unquestioned starter. Beyond him, though, it’s up for debate with Thompson no longer in the picture.
The most likely candidates to take over Thompson’s role are Dadrion “Rabbit” Taylor-Demerson and Wingard. Kitan “Bug” Crawford is another name to watch, though he played sparingly on defensive behind 14% of available snaps.
Adding Stukes wouldn’t hurt from a competition or depth standpoint.
He is, however, being viewed as a second-round pick as the draft approaches, with NFL.com’s Chad Reuter linking the safety to the Chicago Bears’ No. 57 overall pick.
Stukes marks one of the only known draft prospects to visit the Cardinals, joining Florida defensive lineman Caleb Banks.
