Arizona Cardinals Yards from Scrimmage Leaders

Career totals with the Cardinals and the best single seasons in club history. Includes the 2026 season through October 19: these records are rebuilt every night, so a mark set yesterday is here this morning. Seasons before 1922 are not in the source. Figures before 1932 are reconstructions; the NFL kept no official statistics. Chicago Cardinals 1922-1959, St. Louis Cardinals 1960-1987, Phoenix Cardinals 1988-1993. 1944: merged with Pittsburgh as Card-Pitt. Merged-season player lines count for both franchises, as Pro-Football-Reference's franchise histories do. No schedule length in the source for 1944, so no season line that year qualifies for a rate board.
