42 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 42?

We are counting down to the start of the 2025 regular season for the Arizona Cardinals, and we are exactly six weeks away. They will open the season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 7. That is 42 days away.

As we count down the remaining days of the offseason, let's look at who has worn that number uniform over the years for the Cardinals.

Who has worn No. 42?

Lassiter was the best the Cardinals every had to wear No. 42. He was great. Goldberg would later wear No. 99 and that is retired for him. Woodson was the most accomplished player of the group, but he didn't have them with the Cardinals. He was a five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro for the San Francisco 49ers before he came to the Cardinals.
