The Arizona Cardinals had interest in acquiring Buffalo Bills running back C.J. Spiller before October's trade deadline, according to Mike Jurecki of FOX Sports.

Spiller's broken collarbone ended the Cardinals interest for 2014, but with Spiller heading for free agency, Arizona could emerge as a suitor for the talented back out of Clemson.

Just two seasons removed from an explosive 1,244 rushing yard, 6.0 yards-per-carry campaign, Spiller will draw significant interest from around the league. Speculation has emerged of Chip Kelly and the Philadelphia Eagles being intrigued by Spiller.
