Cardinals Roster Cuts & Key Moves | Arizona Cardinals News

The Cardinals finalized their 53-man roster, trimming depth while adding 16 to the practice squad with one spot left — a brutal cut that reshaped key positions. Wide receiver now boasts seven players, a rare move for coach Mike LaFleur, balancing competition and special teams value. Running back and tight end rooms are lean with just three each, opening doors for practice squad standouts like Evan Hull and newcomer Hunter Long — who brings blocking savvy from his Rams days. Notable exits include BJ Ojulari, whose injury struggles earned LaFleur’s sympathy, though Eku Uche claimed the edge at linebacker. Cornerbacks saw departures of injured players, while rookie safety Wydett Williams Jr. earned his spot — and LaFleur joked he won’t be playing Saturdays anymore. LaFleur also stressed that even making the initial roster doesn’t guarantee a full-season spot — survival is still up for grabs.
