Arizona Cardinals place Phil Dawson, Josh Bynes on injured reserve, promote Zane Gonzalez to active roster

Gone from the team are veterans Andre Smith and Bene Benwikere, both who were released as announced by the team today.

Also, the Cardinals have placed their only good linebacker, Josh Bynes on injured reserve while also placing veteran kicker Phil Dawson on IR.

The move paves the way for the Cardinals to promote 23 year old Arizona State alum Zane Gonzalez.

It is the youth movement we have been waiting for.

The Cardinals defense has struggled mightily at the linebacker position, going through a number of players this season to try and find the right combination to work with.
