Per NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal, Cardinals general manager Steve Keim said Wednesday the team was still in the evaluation process for Mathieu's contract and didn't commit to picking up his option.
The Cardinals gave Mathieu a five-year contract extension in 2016. He is set to count $14.1 million against the cap in each of the next two seasons, per Spotrac.
Per Over The Cap, Mathieu has the highest cap number in 2018 among all safeties. Eric Berry of the Kansas City Chiefs is second at $13 million.
The 25-year-old Mathieu appeared in all 16 games last season for the first time in his career. He finished second on the team with two interceptions and tied for fourth with seven passes defensed.
