Although the Arizona Cardinals had to cut down their roster to 53 players on Sunday, they recently re-signed 14 players to the practice squad. Here is the list of Cardinals who have returned:
- LB Eugene Asante
- TE Shawn Bowman
- DL Cam Horsley
- RB Evan Hull
- OL Demontrey Jacobs
- CB Kalen King
- OL Matt Pryor
- TE Teagan Quitoriano
- LB Cameron Robertson
- WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette
- CB Starling Thomas V
- WR Harrison Wallace III
- DL Damonic Williams
- OL Valentin Senn
Cardinals fill out most of their practice squad
Running back Evan Hull returns after a strong preseason finish against the Green Bay Packers, where he rushed for 107 yards on an efficient 16 carries.
It's also notable that the Cardinals decided to carry only three running backs on their 53-man roster, one of whom is Jeremiyah Love, still recovering from a high ankle sprain. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network called Love "about 50/50 to play Week 1."
The Cardinals' first injury report for that matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers will be released September 9. Though Love continues to progress, with their season opener not until September 13, Hull could get called up if he can't go.
The Cardinals now have three final practice squad spots left to fill, with the ability to roster 17 because of the international player practice squad exemption granted for offensive lineman Valentin Senn.
This practice squad tracker will continue to be updated as more players come in, though Arizona didn't make any waiver claims Monday. While some fans may be eager to see this three-win team active on the waivers to upgrade the roster, it's not necessarily a bad thing that they didn't force the issue.
One player the Cardinals cut that has been claimed so far is linebacker Owen Pappoe, picked up by the Tennessee Titans.
Tuesday, Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst also announced in a press conference that the team would be signing Kedon Slovis. The former Cardinals quarterback recorded 223 yards on 21-of-35 passing in their preseason finale against the Packers, including one touchdown and two interceptions. Apparently that audition caught the eye of Green Bay, who will now make Slovis QB3 behind Jordan Love and Tyrod Taylor.
While it's great that he gets another opportunity and we hope he benefits from the change of scenery, it was clear during his Cardinals tenure that he was never going to be the solution to this team's dire quarterback problem.
