Here is Hjalte Froholdt.
Hjalte Froholdt background, 2025 season
Froholdt enters his eighth NFL season and fourth with the Cardinals. He has been the Cardinals' starting center since signing with them in 2023. He was originally drafted by the New England Patriots in 2019 in the fourth round. Last season, he started all 17 games for the Cardinals at center and logged 1,121 total snaps on offense.
Hjalte Froholdt contract details, salary cap hit
Froholdt enters the final year of his two-year, $12 million extension. In 2026, he will make almost $4.8 million in salary and his cap hit will be nearly $7 million after he was paid a $500,000 roster bonus in March.
Roster outlook, questions he faces
Froholdt has established himself as a quality starting center in the league. He continues to be the guy anchoring the middle of the line and is basically a lock for the final roster.
However, the question that he faces is whether or not the Cardinals will try to give him a contract extension for beyond this season. Otherwise, he will be an unrestricted free agent in 2027.
