2024 Fantasy Outlook
Thompson has become a mainstay in the Cardinals secondary since the team used a fifth-round pick on him in the 2019 Supplemental Draft. In particular, he surpassed 100 tackles in both 2021 and 2022, and while he fell off to 78 tackles in 15 games last season, he notched 100 percent of the defensive snaps on 10 occasions and even posted a career-high four interceptions. Playing alongside free safety Budda Baker and middle linebacker Kyzir White somewhat hamstrings Thompson's potential, but the latter's track record should keep him in the IDP picture yet again in 2024.

The Cardinals don't lack for talent in the secondary, so how new coach Jonathan Gannon deploys them will be key to their production. Thompson seems to have the most secure spot among a trio that includes Budda Baker and Isaiah Simmons, as Baker could be looking for an exit and Simmons's super-hybrid role makes him a true fantasy wild card. Thompson has collected 231 tackles the last two seasons, and while his modest splash-play total (four interceptions and zero sacks) keeps him from elite status, his floor appears to be rock solid.
