Arizona Cardinals and Rock Island Independents
Chicago purchased Roddy Lamb from the Rock Island Independents in 1926 after Lamb had been one of Rock Island’s prominent 1925 backs. Contemporary league-meeting coverage says Cardinals owner Chris O’Brien paid a substantial price, though no exact figure survives. Lamb then played 23 games with 10 starts across three Cardinals seasons, giving Chicago a useful multi-year return while Rock Island received cash and soon left the NFL.
