Hadn't heard him say he would go "anywhere", but the article from PFT has that headline...then inside the article it says something different. Terrible headline Darin Gantt and PFT!

Dwight Freeney, begging for work, admits he’ll go “anywhere”

Longtime NFL pass-rusher Dwight Freeney was able to use ESPN for some free advertising, however.
Via Darren Urban of the Cardinals’ team website, Freeney said he’d love to return to Arizona, but made it clear he wanted to sign for anyone.

“But if it doesn’t work out here, it could be anywhere,” Freeney said. “It just depends. It has to be a winning team. I’m used to winning.”
The 36-year-old Freeney showed he still has some gas left in the tank, with 8.0 sacks in 11 games for the Cardinals last year. He said there was “some interest” from other teams, but the fact he was dragging his bait around on national television indicates that interest has yet to manifest itself into a firm offer.

The interesting part might have been his admission that he wanted to go to training camp with a team, rather than just parachute in late like he did last season.
“I know my body loved [signing late], but the anxiety mentally wasn’t good,” Freeney said. “So hopefully I can get signed before then.”
That makes it sound almost desperate, but Freeney’s been around the league long enough to know he doesn’t have long left, so the idea he wants to savor his final moments in the league.
